RESOLVED - Git Push From Test to Prod

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Ubuntu 20.04
Virtualmin version 7.1-1 Pro

Hey folks,

noob question… is there something special that I need to do in order to git push a website from test server to prod sever (both Vmin virtual servers)

I am asking because, my current git push seems correct. I get no errors at all… but at last, the pushed files do not actually appear in the targeted directories.

feel free to smack me about if I am missing something obvious:

I think that the --work-tree git flag gets ignored, so pushed files never get put in the correct place

in my /home/username/public_html/production-site.git/hooks/push-receiver.sh bash script I have:

#!/bin/bash

#Set Receiving & Working directories
git --work-tree=/home/username/public_html --git-dir=/home/username/public_html/production-site.git checkout -f

executable

username@admin:~/public_html/production-site.git$ stat hooks/push-receiver.sh

Branch 'master' set up to track remote branch 'master' from 'prodsite'.

Net result… no actual files in targeted directories

RESOLVED…

rookie error… I got too creative with the name of my name hook file… git only accepts post-receive as the name of the file, but lots of other -ish inside.
