getting "fatal: not a git repository: '.'" when using post-update hook to execute 'git pull' on another repo

git githooks

Here is the script that ultimately worked. I think the bit I was originally missing that prevented it from working remotely was the unset GIT_DIR

#!/bin/shcd /path/to/working-copy/ || exitunset GIT_DIRgit pull repo branchexec git-update-server-info

git githooks

Try instead:

#!/bin/shcd /path/to/working-copy/env -i git pull

git githooks

Despite that unset GIT_DIRjust works.

the problem occurs when you set GIT_DIR wrongly somewhere else.

you can just add that instead:GIT_DIR=.git/It will work
