Error cloning gitolite-admin repo while attempting to create a project or add ssh key
Created by: edrex
Presumably this will happen with other actions that use the admin repo as well.
When I attempt to create a project or add/remove an ssh key on a user, I am redirected to /errors/githost, with the following showing in the logs:
$ tail logs/githost.log

The repo clones fine from the commandline and with gitlab:app:status
➜  gitlab  rvmsudo -u gitlab bundle exec rake gitlab:app:status RAILS_ENV=production
