Not able to push files to remote git repository on local Git server

Question

When I try to push my files to remote repository on a local git server it shows below error. Please help. The remote repository has chmod 777 access. So I dont think it is access related issue.

***nips@nips-OptiPlex-5090:~/myproject$ git push origin master

Answer 1

If you can log on to 10.114.58.68 as git (since it is an SSH URL), check the rights associated with the bare repository in /srv/git/project.git

Make sure, for instance, it is accessible by the group of your user account :

cd /srv/git/project.git                   # Enter inside the git repo
git config core.sharedRepository group    # Update the git's config
chgrp -R <group-name> .                   # Change files and directories' group
chmod -R g+w .                            # Change permissions
chmod g-w objects/pack/*                  # Git pack files should be immutable
find -type d -exec chmod g+s {} +         # New files get directory's group id

Note: Nothing should be owned by root , beside system files.
Do a chown -R git:git /srv/git/project.git .
Root has no business owning Git data.
