Since I knew the patch was coming I rewrote my scripts to use a bare repo in /var/git, and push the changes to /var/www whenever I push to the remote repo. I wrote my post-update to be something like the following. #!/bin/bash LIVE="/var/www/statichacks/blosxom" ref=$1 cd $GIT_DIR echo "Pushing updates to $LIVE..." git archive --format=tar $ref | tar -C $LIVE --atime-preserve -xpf - There may be an easier way to do it, but that script took me about 5 minutes to write and test.
