Trying to run such a clone locally as user ‘mevenson’ I get:

mevenson at lisp:~$ git clone --depth 1 file:///srv/project/alexandria/alexandria.git
Cloning into 'alexandria'...
fatal: Unable to create temporary file '/srv/project/alexandria/alexandria.git/shallow_fhKCi7': Permission denied
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed

Not entirely sure what user the httpd is doing the operation as, but the rest of the error message matches.
