问题
I've set up gitosis using the tutorial privided at:
http://scie.nti.st/2007/11/14/hosting-git-repositories-the-easy-and-secure-way
I found that I was unable to push and create a new repository after adding the appropriate permissions in the gitosis.conf. I would continually get "read access Denied" error. I ended up checking the actual repository on the server which contained my updated gitosis.conf file. However when I checked the '.gitosis.conf' file located in the home folder of the gitosis user, I found that it was not updated. Once I replaced the contents of this file with the one in the repository I was able to create and use the new repository with no problems.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? I know that gitosis uses a post-update hook to update the server appropriately, so I think the problem most likely resides around that.
Thanks in advance! Bryan
回答1:
Check the permissions on the post-update hook in the repository. It must be executable, and the published version of gitosis doesn't ensure that.

I found this problem on Ubuntu 9.04. When I looked into it, I found that the post-update hook pointed to /usr/share/python-support/gitosis/gitosis-0.2-py2.5.egg/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update which no longer existed. I'm sure it came through some updated package.
I looked around on the filesystem and found that if I pointed hooks/post-update to /usr/share/python-support/gitosis/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update it worked just fine.

That's really weird -- on my gitosis installation, the .gitosis.conf in the "gitosis" user's home directory is a symlink. You might want to check that; perhaps gitosis thinks the repository is somewhere other than where you think it is?
Also, adding a section to your conf file like this:
[gitosis]
loglevel = DEBUG
can help you figure out a lot of problems with gitosis.

I tried to cover with commons error for Gitosis installation and setup

I hope that can help you

I know this is short but you probably just need to make the post hook executable...
sudo chmod 755 [your-path-to-your-repo]/gitosis-admin/hooks/post-update
