I just checked the permissions, I don't see anything wrong. The only
thing that comes to my mind is, you are pushing to alioth.debian.org
and not git.debian.org. In the pass when I tried to create the git
repository in alioth, if I remember correctly, I couldn't cause
/srv/git.debian.org is mounted 'ro' on the machine serving alioth.

Could you please try cloning instead from:
git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/debian-med/r-cran-plyr.git

Thanks,
Carlos
