Repairing file permission with Disk Utility means resetting the permission to 
what it was when the files once were installed. This only applies to files 
which were installed by the system.

You could leave the files permission alone if there are nothing indicating 
anything wrong with those files. The permission might change on some files 
without have anything to do with anything wrong. There is a reason the 
permission can be changed and only if you see this is causing any problem there 
is a need to reset them.

What are you trying to achive by the resetting of those files?
