Project description file hasn't been set issue
Created by: railsfactory-rajeshrs
When pushing a fresh repository ( first time ) from local system to my gitlabhq server, I faced this error (only the first time ):
git push -u origin master .... ..... Writing objects: 100% (5/5), 888 bytes, done. Total 5 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) *** Project description file hasn't been set error: hooks/update exited with error code 1 error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master To git@localhost:testapp1.git ! [remote rejected] master -> master (hook declined) error: failed to push some refs to 'git@localhost:testapp1.git' cache: [POST /keys] invalidate, pass
I had to open the .git/description file, delete the first line and added some description to it. This did not solve the issue, so again went to the gitlabhq server, opened the /home/git/repositories/testapp1.git/description file and done the same steps. Then the issue solved.
Please let me know what should be done to rectify this issue.
