How to setup git repository and permissions for multiple projects and developer groups

Question

Hi!

With Subversion one can setup access permissions per directory within repository. So eg. one group can have commit access to directory A, read on B - with exception that DevA has also commit permissions on B.

How can one setup such a structure and permissions for Git repositories?
