Q: How can you set a custom umask on Mountain Lion?
So the method for setting the umask on Lion works fine. I have one machine running Mountain Lion and it doesn't work. I can't find any info on this anywhere. Thanks!
OS X Mountain Lion

Well, on Lion, all I needed to do was log out then back in for it to take effect. I assumed this was would be the case for Mountain Lion, but that wasnt so. It needed a full shutdown; now it's obeying the umask just fine.
Thanks for reminding me about launchctl umask.
