Hi,
I observe a regression that seems to have been introduced between
v2.10.0 and v2.11.0. When I try to push into a repository on the local
filesystem that belongs to another user and has not explicitly been
prepared for shared use, v2.11.0 shows some of the usual diagnostic
output and then freezes instead of announcing why it failed to push.

Steps to reproduce (tested on Debian 8 "Jessie" amd64):
- User A creates a bare repository:
mkdir /tmp/gittest
git init --bare /tmp/gittest
- User B clones it, adds and commits a file:
git clone /tmp/gittest
cd gittest
echo 42 > x
git add x
git commit -m test
- User B tries to push to user A's bare repo:
git push
Expected result (git v2.10.0 and earlier):
test@ios:~/gittest$ git push
Counting objects: 3, done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 230 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done.
Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
remote: error: insufficient permission for adding an object to repository
database objects
remote: fatal: failed to write object
error: unpack failed: unpack-objects abnormal exit
To /tmp/gittest
! [remote rejected] master -> master (unpacker error)
error: failed to push some refs to '/tmp/gittest'
Actual result (git v2.11.0, v2.12.0, and 2.12.0.189.g3bc53220c):
test@ios:~/gittest$ git push
Counting objects: 3, done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 230 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done.
Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
