How to configure post-receive hook on local server

I'm working on local server with Jenkins and my task now is to trigger testing script after each git push.

I tried to do this with post-commit hook, which worked as expected but it ran tests before actual changes were made (pushed to repo). Well, its post-commit, so that's expected.

So I decided to use some kind of post-push and found post-receive hook, but its not working at all. Running sh post-receive does what I want, chmod +x done. What am I doing wrong? Should I use another hook?

A post-receive hook is a server-side hook, run when a Git hosting server received a push.
It is generally set in a bare repo:

myBareRepo.git/hooks/post-receive

If your Jenkins monitors your repo, you could:

  • set your Jenkins job to monitor a bare repo instead:

    git clone --bare myRepo myRepo.git

  • add the post-receive hook in that bare repo instead

  • pushing from your repo to this bare repo

    cd myRepo
git remote add origin ../myRepo.git
git push -u origin master
