Question

I just set up Trac and Gitosis and wanted to control the ticket workflow with the commit messages.
Unfortunately my post-commit hook is not executed. If I execute it on command line (as gitosis user) everything is like charm.

My post-commit is rather simple:

#!/bin/sh
touch /tmp/commited
echo 'Cant touch this!'

Any suggestions on that?

Thanks in advance & cheers
Martin

The OP realized in the comment there was a difference between;

• post-commit hook (which is a client-side hooks, executed on commit when done locally.
• post-receive hook (which is a server-side hook, executed after a push)
