Redmine

Updated script, uses $PWD rather than $GIT_DIR to figure out the repo dir since GIT_DIR might very well be '.'.

Thanks for the script! It's exactly what I needed. I still don't understand why push works but fetch called from the redmine repo doesn't (at it looks as a natural thing to do) but... I'm quite fresh with git.

In my case main git repo dir has a suffix ".git" (e.g. /var/git/repositories/internal/test.git) but redmine bare clone not (e.g. /var/git/checkout/internal/test) so I made a small modification to your script to remove the suffix. (It's attached.)

Also, it wasn't clear to me from your post that "hooks.redmineGitBase" should point to the parent of redmine repos directory (e.g. /var/git/checkout/internal in my case). If multiple repositories have the same base (as they probably do) it may be worth to set this property on a global level.

I added bare repo creation via ssh or file and the ability to set a global redmineGitBase from within the script. I also added some additional validation. This is against Radomir v2, so .git is removed in the cloned repo.

Found a couple of errors in my last submission. Added even more error checks and a call to modify the hooks directory to remove execution.

Well I'm not sure if this one could be really closed. This is another approach to update the repo.

I would tend to close this issue too, but I would like to give the community the chance to give feedback on this.
I set this issue to needs feedback and will close it on 1th April if there is no feedback which tends to the other side.

For your purpose of a global handbook,... This sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure how we should do this, but maybe I get a good concept the next days. :-)
