Group owner of files under configuration-repository are inconsistent

Description
The webapp seems to create/edit files and output them with the group owner root. Which conflicts with the script "/opt/rudder/bin/rudder-fix-repository-permissions" which force the
group owner to be "rudder".
We need to clarify this part and state clearly what should be the perms for the files under the configuration-repository to avoid such conflicting and misleading cases.
The configuration repository after a technique creation:
server:/var/rudder/configuration-repository # find /var/rudder/configuration-repository ! -group rudder
/var/rudder/configuration-repository/directives/ncf_techniques/pkg
/var/rudder/configuration-repository/directives/ncf_techniques/pkg/activeTechniqueSettings.xml
/var/rudder/configuration-repository/directives/ncf_techniques/pkg/7ac318b5-9f6e-416c-98e0-1373b2aa323d.xml

We have `/opt/rudder/bin/rudder-fix-repository-configuration` that does:
echo -n "INFO: Correcting permissions on /var/rudder/configuration-repository..."
# Adjust permissions on /var/rudder/configuration-repository
chgrp -R rudder /var/rudder/configuration-repository
## Add execution permission for ncf-api only on directories and files with user execution permission
chmod -R u+rwX,g+rwX /var/rudder/configuration-repository/.git
chmod -R u+rwX,g+rwX /var/rudder/configuration-repository/techniques
## Add setgid to directories so that all files created here belong to the rudder group
find /var/rudder/configuration-repository/.git /var/rudder/configuration-repository/techniques -type d -exec chmod g+s "{}" \;
echo " Done"
There are users that are using custom acls to synchronize the repository from different servers, I have seen them using a default acl setup on the repository such as:
setfacl -Rm default:group:rudder:rwx /var/rudder/configuration-repository
