The most common issue I have seen in cases like this is that you need to 'unset GIT_DIR'. In fact, anytime you play around with running stuff from *inside* a hook that works fine when you run it from outside, you need to check what GIT_ variables are present. I believe 'unset `git rev-parse --local-env-vars`' is a good idea too; probably much simpler. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
