It's possible. But gogs currently does not provide this feature.

This feature someone else has asked before, it will be implemented.

A little how-to for a server-side workaround, waiting for a possible gogs feature :)

1. connect to the server where gogs is installed and move to the gogs/ folder
2. cd inside the repositories folder, the default is repos
3. move to the user and then to the specific repo where you want the push-to-deploy, ex. cd doe/mycode.git
4. if you list ls you should see a hooks folder: this is where different hooks are located. You can learn more about git hooks here or here
5. inside hooks/ there are different .sample files, we need post-receive.sample. Renames it deleting the .sample cp post-receive.sample post-receive.
6. Now we need to actually add the script that will be executed after every push. So, vim post-receive and insert:

#!/bin/sh
git --work-tree=/var/www/html/mycode --git-dir=/var/www/html/gogs/repos/doe/mycode.git checkout -f

That's all!

Wow, looks great!

We don't use git's post-receive hook. But we can add a hook in gogs serve.

These things can actually happen in the CommitRepoAction.

Hi @tubia , I just pushed code to dev branch for Git hooks support, for security reason, it's disabled by default, you need to change config option service -> ENABLE_GIT_HOOKS = true and restart Gogs to be able to see it in repository setting page.

Any feedback is welcome!

Hi @unknwon sounds great :)
I'll give it a try ASAP!

hi @tubia, your solution works like a charm. All I needed to do was: chmod +x post-receive!
