"error: Incorrect permissions" when building

Summary

Following the instructions for building and compiling, I get the following error:

target/release/arti: error: Incorrect permissions: / is u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rwx; must be g-w,o-w

I don't know anything about Rust, but a quick Googling of the error message didn't find a solution. I'm sure this is something simple, but I thought it would be best to create an issue here in case others run into the same problem.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Cloned repo (origin/main)
2. Following the instructions in README.md I ran cargo run -p arti --release -- proxy

What is the current bug behavior?

The error message:

target/release/arti: error: Incorrect permissions: / is u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rwx; must be g-w,o-w

What is the expected behavior?

Arti runs and starts a Tor proxy.
