No, that'll work unless you have the repository on a FAT drive.

I'd normally use chmod, but I just tried editing the ACL directly and it 
picked it up quite nicely.

I've never come across the idea of windows itself obeying execute until 
recently.  By default it has a nice collection of ACLs on the root drive 
that effectively grant execute to everyone, and only an explicit deny 
will stop it (sometimes not even then)...  It seems some are now locking 
down their roots to deny execute which is why I've not heard of any 
problems (this code has been active since April with no issues).  If you 
re-add the default ACLs to the root drive it'll work too without any 
extra effort.
