I am writing gitosis post-push hook for central repository

which pulls updates from central repository to testing enviroment

nano /var/git/repositories/holding.git/hooks/post-update

 #!/bin/bash

 cd /var/vh/holding;
 git reset --hard;
 git checkout testing;
 git pull;

here what I get after push on my client (development VM)

# blah ...

To git@cheby.ru:holding.git
   233b5a2..0f46cd8  testing -> testing

Obviously, my attempt to tell git, where it should do pull, failed.

What is correct way to run git command for a specified working copy in bash script?

    As mentioned here or there, you could precede all your git commands with:

     env -i

    in order to make sure there is no side effect with, for instance, a GIT_DIR environment variable which could have been previously set.
    (env -i or simply: unset GIT_DIR)
