Same as here https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/34522 My folder for custom_hooks: ``` [root@leo custom_hooks]# ls -al total 12 drwsrwsrwx 2 git git 4096 Sep 20 10:44 . drwxrwx--- 8 git git 4096 Sep 20 10:41 .. -rwsrwsrwx 1 git git 185 Sep 20 10:40 post-merge [root@leo admin.git]# cd .. && ls hooks post-receive pre-receive update ``` The script is very simple: pull in the testing folder ``` #!/bin/bash cd $WWW/admin git checkout develop git pull ``` After a merge request accepted in GitLab, no updates (no pull) take place.
