One suspicion and one suggestion (without knowing exactly where
that suggestion might lead us to).

 - your stdout/stderr might be connected to somewhere that your
   output gets stuck ("broken pipe"), when your script is run
   from the hook.

 - your environment might be different from what you are
   assuming.

How about doing something like this?

	  #!/bin/sh

	+ exec >/var/tmp/hook-out.$$ 2>/var/tmp/hook-err.$$
	+ echo "** env **"
	+ env
	+ echo "** vars **"
	+ i=0
	+ for v
	+ do
	+	 echo "$i: $v"
	+	 i=$(($i+1))
	+ done
	+ echo "** pwd etc **"
	+ pwd
	+ id -a

	  unset GIT_DIR
	  cd /home/barkalow/auto-working/web
	  if ! git pull /home/barkalow/git/web.git/

and then next replace the whole thing with:

	exec >/dev/null 2>&1
