undefined method 'author' for nil:NilClass
/home/gitlab/gitlabhq/app/workers/post_receive.rb:10:in 'perform'
in post-receive hook log we can see:
project_name, babdf90b2dc02e901f99b84e1fcc2fa435063a18 , daca90f001355d6aa6cea4f4cfe91cba11a736f4 , refs/heads/some_branch, gitlab
project_name, 31a9999a3d58629514babd86fe9074b961c0c0d3 , 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 , refs/heads/some_branch, gitlab
bug occurs in second push, when branch "some_branch" is deleted
/home/gitlab/gitlabhq/app/workers/post_receive.rb:10
user = if identifier.eql? Gitlab.config.gitolite_admin_key
email = project.commit(newrev).author.email
because newrev is "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000", it is not exists in project commits, so project.commit(newrev) returns nil
I think, simple way to fix it - add rescue
for this statement
