Git push to bare repository not reflecting changes

On my local machine I have a dev branch and a prod branch of a master repository in bitbucket. This master repository is origin on my local remotes. I also have a webserver that's hosted as a bare repository to push changes to. This bare repository is prod-server on my local remotes.

When I push the contents of prod to prod-server master the production server tells me Everything up-to-date; but, if I check the webserver's files, their changed timestamp and contents do not reflect the changes in my commit!

Git-bash

[email protected] MINGW32 /c/git/ObfuscatedProjectName (prod)
$ git push prod-server prod:master -f

    yesterday's commit

ls -l on server

[kareem@domain python]$ ls -l
total 748
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 apache company    2126 Jul 21 15:36 file.py
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 kareem kareem  1733 Sep 21 17:18 file2.py
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 apache company    1461 Sep 21 17:44 file3.py
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 apache company   27257 Jul 21 15:36 file4.py
-rw-r--r--. 1 root   root   22597 Jul 25 11:50 file5.pyc
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 apache company    1458 Sep 21 18:08 file6.py

Notice the time stamps for files 3,4, and 5? They correspond to yesterday's commit, but were changed in today's 2 commits. If I open the files directly and check their contents, they are indeed unchanged since yesterday in spite of the git log specifying otherwise.

A post-receive hook had been setup to checkout the repository upon receipt of commits. The directory url was wrong. 

#!/bin/sh 
GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/ObfuscatedProjectName git checkout -f

/home/ObfuscatedProjectName should've been /ObfuscatedProjectName
