Documentation: update tar.umask default

Browse source 
As noted by Mike Hommey, the documentation for the config setting tar.umask
is not up-to-date.  Commit f08b3b0e2e changed
the default from 0 to 2; this patch finally documents it.

tar.umask::
By default, gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] sets file and directories modes
to 0666 or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects
such as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects.
With this variable, it becomes possible to tell
gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] to apply a specific umask to the modes above.
The special value "user" indicates that the user's current umask will
be used. This should be enough for most projects, as it will lead to
the same permissions as gitlink:git-checkout[1] would use. The default
value remains 0, which means world read-write.
This variable can be used to restrict the permission bits of
tar archive entries. The default is 0002, which turns off the
world write bit. The special value "user" indicates that the
archiving user's umask will be used instead. See umask(2) and
gitlink:git-archive[1].

CONFIGURATION

By default, file and directories modes are set to 0666 or 0777 in tar
archives. It is possible to change this by setting the "umask" variable
in the repository configuration as follows :
[tar]
umask = 002 ;# group friendly
The special umask value "user" indicates that the user's current umask
will be used instead. The default value remains 0, which means world
readable/writable files and directories.
