  1. Very useful info – Thank you!

    One error. it appears that something the system doesn’t like underscores ‘_’. as a result, the top line in the file listing contains errors.

    As listed:
    proxycachepath /var/cache/nginx levels=1:2 keyszone=mycache:10m maxsize=10g inactive=480m usetemp_path=off;

    Correct:
    proxy_cache_path /var/cache/nginx levels=1:2 keys_zone=my_cache:10m max_size=10g inactive=480m use_temp_path=off;

    Still, your article really helped me out.

    Thanks again!

  2. Hey Donovan,

    First thank you for the nice writeup!
    There’s a typo in your post-receive hook, you used both GITDIR and GIT_DIR, this leads to a syntax error that took me quite a while to figure out. If you’re already in the process of fixing this, maybe also change from master to main for the branch check.

    Best, Luca
