Re: building git ; need suggestion

I'm closer to my requirement. I have found gitweb simply provide a GUI for history check and code comparison. And the git itself is good enough to do the ACL stuff with hooks.

I already have the following code to deploy the push into its work-tree

=========================== #!/bin/bash

while read oldrev newrev ref
do
  branch=`echo $ref | cut -d/ -f3`

  if [ "master" == "$branch" ]; then
    git --work-tree=/path/under/root/dir/live-site/ checkout -f $branch
    echo 'Changes pushed live.'
  fi

  if [ "dev" == "$branch" ]; then
    git --work-tree=/path/under/root/dir/dev-site/ checkout -f $branch
    echo 'Changes pushed to dev.'
  fi
done
=========================

This code can be extended for as many branches as you have.

I now need a mechanism to restrict the user to it's own branch so that user can't push into any other branch in mistake.

Say I have

master branch -> only admin user can push here. dev branch -> only user dev1 , dev2 and master can push here. testing branch -> only user test1 and test2 can push here.

I think this can also be done with pre-receive hook. Any suggestion on the hook design is welcome. Also this can be implemented on the above hook or in a separate hook. A separate hook is better due to maintainability and then I need to call multiple pre-receive hook. Please suggest.

Thanks
