Git post-update hook to checkout working copy and publish it with jekyll (put it into .git/hooks and chmod +x post-update)
#!/bin/sh
#
# This hook does two things:
#
# 1. update the "info" files that allow the list of references to be
# queries over dumb transports such as http
#
# 2. if this repository looks like it is a non-bare repository, and
# the checked-out branch is pushed to, then update the working copy.
# This makes "push" function somewhat similarly to darcs and bzr.
#
# To enable this hook, make this file executable by "chmod +x post-update".

@gbraad Thanks. The script was based on template from some old version of git, which was using "git-command". Updated.
