Hi team, I think I have done the task correctly and i got the expected output of task Day 34. I have tried multiple time but every time system says that my anser is not corrct. I am not sure, what is the issue.
Hey @suzaman
I was stuck for about 3 days on this task alone. So I hope I can help.
Here’s a few things to make sure that you’re doing the right thing (just cos your request doesn’t contain a lot of detail, let’s ensure you have the following down):
- Make sure that your hook is setup on your bare repo (i.e. /opt/official.git or whatever the question throws at you)
- Here’s a snippet of the git hook that worked for me:
#My question was on /opt/media.git folder so-- /opt/media.git/hooks/post-update
#!/usr/bin/sh
# Arguments to post-update
DATE=$(date +%F) # YYYY-MM-DD
GIT_DIR=$(pwd)
echo "Creating tag release-$DATE"
git --git-dir="$GIT_DIR" tag "release-$DATE" master
and rememember to make the file executable chmod +x /opt/media.git/hooks/post-update
-
In this post, I outline what had me stuck for a few days. I was tagging the release but also forcing the tag unto subsequent commits (cos I was worried that the system would attempt to commit and get a failure). I now believe that I was marked wrong cos I did a
git tag -f… -
change dir into your working directory (in my case it was:
cd /usr/src/kodekloudrepos/media
You should be on the “feature branch”, so switch to “master”
git checkout master
git merge feature
git push
Please let me know if any of that helped.
cheers.

hi @olakunlecrown28 ,
I had the same problem mentioned in the thread. i added -f option. after deleting -f option, its done. Thanks for helping me.
Awesome,
Glad it helped.
Cheers.
It will be work if user git push instead of git push origin master.
you can check this : it contains the solution of Day 34 100-Days-Of-DevOps-KodeKloud-Challenges-Solutions
Oh, okay, I’ll try that too. thanks.
Hello did you face this error?
GIT_DIR=/usr/src/kodekloudrepos/apps
or
GIT_DIR=/usr/src/kodekloudrepos/apps/.git
which one is corect 1st or 2nd line?
Wrong value for GIT_DIR in the second case! The .git directory is a settings directory that sits inside of the git directory. So it should be GIT_DIR=/usr/src/kodekloudrepos/apps
Why does this line GIT_DIR=$(pwd) resolves to GIT_DIR:/opt/official.git ,
when in step 4 working directory was changed to /usr/src/kodekloudrepos/media ?
I am testing both values:
-
If I dont mention .git at the end, I get error ‘not a git repo’ . notice the yellow lines:
-
If I do mention .git at the end, I dont get the error but instead I get identity error
-
And finally if I mention work-tree and git-dir… and git configs: (–work-tree is actually not needed here, i tested)
git is like a 70-headed-hydra in Hercules game
