Hi Jason,

2006/5/23, Jason Riedy [off-list ref]:
This is explicitly allowed by the SUS, even for non-root:
  http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/access.html
For non-root, some ACL systems could allow you to execute
the file even if there are no execute bits.  What a joy
ACLs are.  Or NFS uid mappings could play tricks on you,
or...  And as you've noticed, this kills [ -x ].  (Failing
to run the hooks in receive-pack.c is noisy but not fatal.
It's the shell scripts that stop.)
Yup, but this breaks test t5400 - I think because of the post-update
hook is failing.
I think you're stuck.  To disable the hooks for all possible
users, OSes, file systems, etc., you need to remove them.

Or just don't run as root, and hope that the OS isn't
completely insane.
As non-root it works fine.
BTW, ERR_RUN_COMMAND_EXEC is never returned.  Any failure
to exec will produce an exit code of 128 from die.  This
will be an issue when commit becomes a built-in, right?
Think so.

bye

Stefan
