As shipped, the example git-merge-one-file-script often leaves the merge result with not-so-useful mode bits, especially with glibc 2.0.7 or later whose mkstemp() creates temporary file with mode 0600. This contradicts the way checkout-cache creates new files, which is to use 0666 (or 0777 for files with executable bit on) and let the umask mechanism to take care of adjusting it to the user's preference.
This patch fixes this problem by (1) passing the executable bits for 3 stages from merge-cache to the merge script, and by (2) adjusting the example script to make use of that information. For backward compatibility with existing merge-one-file-script people may already have developed, the additional 3 arguments are passed after the filename (i.e. as $5, $6 and $7). This does not logically look so nice, but the older scripts can and would just ignore these new parameters. The patch also fixes some shell quoting problems the original sample script had with the resulting filename "$4". Unlike all the other arguments, this must be quoted to prevent it from being split via shell's $IFS mechanism.
