rake gitlab:app:backup_create fails cloning gitolite-admin.git

Created by: lagrz

This is running on a fresh install in AWS EC2 using the recipe in the other repo when I manually run the backup rake task

sudo -u gitlab -H bundle exec rake gitlab:app:backup_create RAILS_ENV=production

It dumps all the databases and repositories properly with the exception of the gitolite-admin.git repo.

- Dumping repository gitolite-admin.git... [FAILED]

All else works fine. I'm wondering if cloning of gitolite-admin.git is necessary for restore or if I will have troubles. I noticed the back up is made by creating bundles of my repos which is most important I can always just manually do the importing again. Though I would prefer not to if the tool is already made and working.

Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work guys this app is awesome.
