git hook post-receive not working

问题:

I trying to deploy some PHP code to the server with Git. I am using a GoDaddy server. I have created the bare repository. In the hooks folder, I created a post-receive file and wrote the following code in it.

#!/bin/sh
GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/domain/public_html/website git checkout -f

I want the git repo to move the source code that I have just pushed to the website directory in public_html. I changed the permission to 0775.

However, my website directory still remains empty. What should I do?

回答1:

Perhaps it's because you spelled "post-recieve" wrong? It should be post-receive (note the i and e after the c).

Good point by jszakmeister. Also, the hook file has to be executable. Just do chmod +x post-receive for that.
