Bug Description
As of 1.16.1, bzr sets the permissions for files written into a control directory to be consistent with what's already there, and it uses the OS default when creating new control directories.
It would be useful to have a configuration option to set the permissions:
1- this may be easier than the user understanding how to set the umask, group, etc for newly created directories
2- in cases like bug 326543 or others it may be hard for us to read back the permissions
3- sometimes the server doesn't allow setting permissions and it would be useful to tell bzr not to try

How should Bazaar behave on Windows OSes? Thats the question. If there is some possibility to set some permissions on Windows to allow Bazar to set correct permissions it could be a workaround...
