I will test it out today at work and report back but it should work; I
don't see why it wouldn't, unless somewhere else there's a
sanitisation of env vars going on for security.

works beautifully!  Thanks again.

You are welcome. An interesting addition would be to propagate allowed
branchnames from gitosis.conf. That way you can implement write-
protected branches using an update hook.

Which enables better support for a maintainer based workflow for
centralized setups. Every developer would be allowed to push all branch
names he likes but the master branch is only writable by the maintainer.

A nice solution to steer this directly from gitosis.conf? I never got
around implementing it.
