How to hook a git submodule?

Question

I have installed a hook on the staging servers, allowing me to push to staging very easy. However, the code includes a submodule and this one does not get copied over due to access rights.

This is the post-receive hook I am using:

#!/bin/sh GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/www/staging git checkout -f pwd cd /home/www/staging/ git --git-dir=/home/git/staging.git --work-tree=/home/www/staging submodule update --init --recursive

After trying to git push staging I get the following:

remote: /home/git/staging.git remote: Cloning into 'MEW'... remote: Host key verification failed. remote: fatal: Could not read from remote repository. remote: remote: Please make sure you have the correct access rights remote: and the repository exists. remote: Clone of '[email protected]:demo/demo-mew.git' into submodule path 'MEW' failed

Do I need to create a cert on the staging server and add this one to bitbucket?

Thank you. Now it becomes more clear. Unfortunatelly I did run into another problem stackoverflow.com/questions/32584292/… Is there something I need to change to the remote repo in order to make the change? — merlin

In the post-receive hook

#!/bin/sh GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/www/staging git checkout -f pwd

Change dir to the root folder

Specify the work tree and directory

submodule update init

cd /home/www/ git --git-dir=<path to git dir>.git --work-tree=<path to submodule> submodule update --init --recursive

I hope this will help Please let me know if this does't work Thanks

Thank you for your help. I updated the question coresponding to the problem. Is the displayed config as you recommend it to be? I am running into access right problems with this.
