Git Hooks Tutorial

The goal is to test creating a git hook on serge.

steps

Create new user on serge that belongs to www-data and git groups:

useradd -G www-data git -M mkdocs

Create new directory in /var/www; chown to mkdocs:www-data

mkdir /var/www/services.anarchyplanet.org
chown mkdocs:www-data /var/www/services.anarchyplanet.org

Create new post-receive git hook

Gogs has a post-receive hook that seems to be active: "/srv/git/gogs/gogs" hook --config='/srv/git/gogs/custom/conf/app.ini' post-receive

Not sure what this does. I commented it out and replaced it to test hooks. committing now!

That didn't work so trying again

That worked! and the user is git. now testing what happens when it's owned by mkdocs
