461 <div class="paragraph">
462 <p>Invoked by <em>git send-pack</em> and updates the repository with the
463 information fed from the remote end.</p>
464 </div>
465 <div class="paragraph">
466 <p>This command is usually not invoked directly by the end user.
467 The UI for the protocol is on the <em>git send-pack</em> side, and the
468 program pair is meant to be used to push updates to a remote
469 repository. For pull operations, see <a href="git-fetch-pack.html">git-fetch-pack(1)</a>.</p>
470 </div>
471 <div class="paragraph">
472 <p>The command allows for the creation and fast-forwarding of sha1 refs
473 (heads/tags) on the remote end (strictly speaking, it is the
474 local end <em>git-receive-pack</em> runs, but to the user who is sitting at
475 the send-pack end, it is updating the remote. Confused?)</p>
476 </div>
477 <div class="paragraph">
478 <p>There are other real-world examples of using update and
479 post-update hooks found in the Documentation/howto directory.</p>
480 </div>
481 <div class="paragraph">
482 <p><em>git-receive-pack</em> honours the receive.denyNonFastForwards config
483 option, which tells it if updates to a ref should be denied if they
484 are not fast-forwards.</p>
485 </div>
486 <div class="paragraph">
487 <p>A number of other receive.* config options are available to tweak
488 its behavior, see <a href="git-config.html">git-config(1)</a>.</p>

513 <div class="sectionbody">
514 <div class="paragraph">
515 <p>Before any ref is updated, if $GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-receive file exists
516 and is executable, it will be invoked once with no parameters. The
517 standard input of the hook will be one line per ref to be updated:</p>
518 </div>
519 <div class="literalblock">
520 <div class="content">
521 <pre>sha1-old SP sha1-new SP refname LF</pre>
522 </div>
523 </div>
524 <div class="paragraph">
525 <p>The refname value is relative to $GIT_DIR; e.g. for the master
526 head this is "refs/heads/master". The two sha1 values before
527 each refname are the object names for the refname before and after
528 the update. Refs to be created will have sha1-old equal to 0{40},
529 while refs to be deleted will have sha1-new equal to 0{40}, otherwise
530 sha1-old and sha1-new should be valid objects in the repository.</p>
531 </div>
532 <div class="paragraph">
533 <p>When accepting a signed push (see <a href="git-push.html">git-push(1)</a>), the signed
534 push certificate is stored in a blob and an environment variable
535 <code>GIT_PUSH_CERT</code> can be consulted for its object name. See the
536 description of <code>post-receive</code> hook for an example. In addition, the
537 certificate is verified using GPG and the result is exported with
538 the following environment variables:</p>

636 head this is "refs/heads/master". The two sha1 arguments are
637 the object names for the refname before and after the update.
638 Note that the hook is called before the refname is updated,
639 so either sha1-old is 0{40} (meaning there is no such ref yet),
640 or it should match what is recorded in refname.</p>

647 <p>Successful execution (a zero exit status) of this hook does not

674 0{40}, while refs that were deleted will have sha1-new equal to
