+The HEAD.lock permissions error does not come from the post-receive hook or
+from ikiwiki when it runs it. Instead, stracing git-daemon shows that it
+happens after ikiwiki has checked the push and accepted it, and exited
+successfully.
+
+So the problem is that git-daemon is unable to write to the git repo.

+
+ikiwiki-hosting's ikisite is supposed to arrange for git-daemon
+to be able to write there by using an ACL, so something about that
+must be what is broken now. --[[Joey]]
+
+Ok, found the problem. ikisite runs setfacl, and that does the right thing.
+Then ikisite runs chmod on the source.git directory (to make it suid as seen
+above). That seems to mess up the ACLs that were set earlier.
+
+The diff from good to bad ACLs, as shown by getfacl is:
+
+ -group::rwx
+ -group:ikiwiki-anon:rwx
+ -group:b-ikiwiki:rwx
+ -group:b-git-annex:rwx
+ -mask::rwx
+ +group::rwx #effective:r-x
+ +group:ikiwiki-anon:rwx #effective:r-x
+ +group:b-ikiwiki:rwx #effective:r-x
+ +group:b-git-annex:rwx #effective:r-x
+ +mask::r-x
+
+I don't understand ACLs or how a chmod could clear them but ok, ikisite needs
+to chmod before setting the ACLS.
+
+This is not an ikiwiki bug and I'll fix it in ikisite-hosting then. [[done]]
