Is there any kind of synchronization with remote operations? That is,
can there be any race conditions if multiple clients connect? I'm
assuming that such operations are safe, but I couldn't find a place
with a concrete description.
More specifically, I'm wondering about writing hooks (specifically, a
`post-receive' hook), and it would make things convenient if I knew
that it was called synchronously.
And a related question: is there somewhere a summary of how the hooks
are called for each operation? The githooks man page specifies some
of the relationships but a list with how each operation perform its
work would be much more convenient to read through. For example, if a
remote update had a list of operations with "grab lock" in the
beginning and a "release lock" after running the `post-receive' hook,
then I wouldn't have the above question. Also, it's unclear how
`post-update' is related to `post-receive' -- there's one comment in
the man entry for the former that makes it sound like it is supersedes
by the latter, but there's nothing explicit about it.
