It seems that 'proj/x11.git' was some kind of half-bare repository since the beginning, and it always complained when pushing. But since last git update, the default behavior has changed and now git refuses all commits. I guess the 'bare' repository was created by simply moving the .git directory from a checkout. I think the simplest solution for this would be to 'git clone --bare' the repository once again. Below is the exact error message: $ git push Counting objects: 11, done. Delta compression using up to 2 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (6/6), done. Writing objects: 100% (6/6), 715 bytes, done.

Reassigning to infra, we don't have enough perms to fix it
More details we were able to read: The config file holds [core] bare = false besides other non-usual entries. Files that exist more than elsewhere are: FETCH_HEAD, ORIG_HEAD and index. If we had permissions to run something like "sudo su -s /bin/bash git" on pelican the overlay team could probably fix this itself.
Please re-test. Thanks for reporting :)
