How do I recover from pushing a gitosis.conf file with parsing errors due to line breaks?
- by Kasia
I have successfully set up gitosis for an Android mirror (containing multiple git repositories). While adding a new .git path following writable= in gitosis.conf I managed to insert a few line breaks. Saved, committed and pushed to server when I received the following parsing error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/gitosis-run-hook", line 8, in
load_entry_point('gitosis==0.2', 'console_scripts', 'gitosis-run-hook')()

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/ConfigParser.py", line 490, in _read
raise e
ConfigParser.ParsingError: File contains parsing errors: ./gitosis-export/../gitosis.conf
(...)
I have removed the line break and amendend the commit by
git commit -m "fix linebreak" --amend
However git push still yields the exact same error. It leads me to believe gitosis is preventing me from doing any further pushes.
How do I recover from this?
