Thanks Jacob. I'd just like to confirm that I am, in fact, using the update hook. I logged into the server holding the git repo, cd'd to the .git/hooks/ directory. Moved the update.sample to update. Changed the code to something trivial that would echo back to the client for testing. I checked permissions, checked ownership, ran the code as the git repo owner. I logged out, did a trivial change in the client repo, ran git commit -a -m "foo" and expected that the trivial update script to run on the server would produce output to the client. This never occurred. I further tested the client hooks which also did not run. 

I wonder if git is not seeing the scripts or if the backend mechanism has changed in some manner from one version of git to another? Any insight is welcome. I'll run the  hooks in the client with strace to see if I can get any information on what is happening.
