Yes, I know that this executes locally under my credentials. I am also
aware that it executes in an empty environment.
I can execute the .bat file with correct results from the hooks
directory regardless of whether or not it is mapped to drive. The hook
does execute when the repository is mapped, but the exact same
repository connected to a UNC name doesn't execute the hooks.
I was not aware of the vulnerability under FILE://, but now that you
mention it, I'm guessing the problem arises when two (or more) people
try to commit (or otherwise modify) the repository at the same time.
Since FILE:// provides no directory level locking, you can get seriously
hosed. Is that the issue?
Thanks.
