Flow has a shared labs instance ee-flow.wmflabs.org. We want devs to update it as themselves, so we set [core] sharedRepository = group and all the files are group project-editor-engagement with directories having the setgid bit. However, /srv/mediawiki continually gets reset to drwxr-xr-x root:root , preventing this. Gerrit change #79955 should fix this.
Change 79955 had a related patch set uploaded by Spage: Set group for /srv/mediawiki on singlenode mediawiki https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/79955
