This bug documents current status of patchwork/git integration
Hmm, this actually looks a little more complicated than I thought. For commits, people use git.freedesktop.org, this equates to be kemper. Patchwork doesn't exist on kemper as /srv lives on anarchy. Hence I'm guessing Keith you get a command not found error. To prevent annoying errors, i've now removed the git hook and have filed this email as a https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43153 so there's some history and connecting things together doesn't get forgotten.

My suggestion is create a dummy user in patchwork and put their authentication details in /var/www (www-data user).

Seems to exist plenty fine to me: : root@kemper ~ # ls /srv/patchwork apps/ docs/ HOME/ htdocs/ lib/ templates/ tools/
It definitely exists on kemper, but the authentication thing is a problem. I'm guessing that creating one master user as benjsc suggested is the best way to go, because else we're going to have to have every git committer create a patchwork user, get their details into ~/.pwclientrc on kemper somehow, and also give them permission to update patches. Even after creating a new user and a ~/.pwclientrc, I get: daniels@kemper:/srv/patchwork/apps/patchwork/bin% ./pwclient update -s Accepted 8146 Error updating patch: <type 'exceptions.Exception'>:No permissions to edit this patch Patch not updated Tollef, I don't suppose you could do this?
There should be no need for the special user with the following setup: : root@kemper /srv/patchwork/HOME # cat /git/xorg/xserver.git/hooks/post-receive #! /bin/sh export HOME=/srv/patchwork/HOME # See bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43153 #exec /srv/patchwork/tools/post-receive.hook "$@" : root@kemper /srv/patchwork/HOME # ls -ld . .pwclientrc drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2011-11-09 21:47 ./ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 107 2011-11-09 21:34 .pwclientrc : root@kemper /srv/patchwork/HOME # The # in front of exec was added by benjsc. It would have been really useful if somebody who actually saw the error could have told me what it is rather than leaving me guessing. I'd be happy to try to debug this if somebody can catch me on IRC before they're about to push to an xorg repo. I'll then enable the hook and we can find out what is happening.
No response from submitter, there is apparently no interest in getting patchwork working for xorg.
