The only real solution: don't share working copies. They're called
working copies for a reason!
You have the repository where everyone has access to, *that's* the one
thing that's shared. Working copies must not be shared.

Or you could try a plain Windows share, not SAMBA - unfortunately, SAMBA
always causes problems with permissions, after all, it runs on Linux and
the Linux and Windows permissions are *not* the same.
