I thought I remember a script somewhere telling me what to put into a trigger in the git documentation a long time ago. Oh, wait, is it just: chmod +x my-git.git/hooks/post-update as the core-tutorial.txt file shows? Is that all that is needed? thanks, greg k-h ``` ## Linus Torvalds, 2008-06-19 00:26 Subject: Re: cannot use stable 2.6.25.y tree with HTTP Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/alpine.LFD.1.10.0806181725250.2907%40woody.linux-foundation.org In-Reply-To: <20080619000722.GA14270@kroah.com> ``` On Wed, 18 Jun 2008, Greg KH wrote: > > git developers, do I need to do something to get git-update-server-info > to run on kernel.org every time I do a push so that I don't have to do > it by hand (and then forget for new releases, like I did above?)
