Hi all,
I created 4 branches with a remote repository on a server.
I've changed some files locally, committed and now try to push... but
it fails with hook declined.
Now the status:
$ git pull -v
From git://XXXX/YY
 = [up to date]      TEST       -> origin/TEST
 = [up to date]      master     -> origin/master
 = [up to date]      v1.03      -> origin/v1.03
 = [up to date]      v2.07      -> origin/v2.07
 = [up to date]      v3.11      -> origin/v3.11
Already up-to-date.
$ git push -v
Pushing to git://XXXX/YY
GIT TRANPORT

 ! [remote rejected] master -> master (hook declined)
 ! [remote rejected] v3.11 -> v3.11 (hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'git://XXXX/YY'

I also get a warning when moving between branches: $ git checkout v3.11 Switched to branch "v3.11" Your branch is ahead of the tracked remote branch 'origin/v3.11' by 1 commit.

$ git checkout master Switched to branch "master" Your branch is ahead of the tracked remote branch 'origin/master' by 2 commits.

Any ideas how to recover from here? The git-daemon seems to run fine, as I can commit and push from another test project. It would be nice if there were more clean failure messages from the daemon...(Enhancement)

Thanks, Alf

OK. So your "update" hook returned failure. What's in the remote's .git/hooks/update?

This is fine; it's just reminding you that you have commits that could be pushed.
