- Create a UNIX group for each of the companies.
- Put each company's modules in the correct per-company group.
- Put the company's user account(s) into that group, but NOT into
  the "cvs" group.
- Put yourself in all of the per-company groups, AND in "cvs".
- Set everybody's umask to 2, i.e. files and directories will be
  world-readable, and group-writable.
