Hello, The following snippet reproduces the issue for me (note the remote: line in its output):
git --version
rm -rf a b
git init a
cd a
echo first >data
git add data
git commit -m initial
cat >>.git/hooks/post-receive <<EOF
#!/bin/sh
pwd
EOF
chmod +x .git/hooks/post-receive
cd ..
git clone a b
cd b
echo second >>data
git add data
git commit -m test
git push origin master:not-master
According to man githooks "Before Git invokes a hook, it changes
its working directory to either the root of the working tree in a
non-bare repository, [...]". In this case "a" is non-bare and I
expected the command to be run in the working tree; but instead
it's run inside .git. (This caused some confusion in my case
because I ran "git merge" in the hook which put files in the .git
directory and I didn't notice it at first. I know running merge
in receive-hooks is "bad practice" but it works fine in my
setup.)
The same happens for all hooks executed by git-receive-pack:
pre-receive, update, post-receive, post-update.
Is this a documentation issue or unexpected behavior?
Regards
Simon
