fatal: Not a git repository when running rake tasks

Added by Pete Deffendol at 2011-12-02 05:22 am

When I run my rake tasks in production, I'm getting an error notice. The task seems to run, but I can't seem to find out why it's even looking for a git repository. I don't have any associated with my projects being tracked - they're all SVN repos.

I'm using:
ChiliProject 2.5.0 (just upgraded from 1.5)
Ruby Enterprise Edition 1.8.7

Here's what it looks like:

$ bundle exec rake redmine:fetch_changesets RAILS_ENV=production --trace
** Invoke redmine:fetch_changesets (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
** Execute redmine:fetch_changesets

Any ideas on how to pinpoint the source of this problem?

An update - I found out where it's happening:

lib/chili_project/version.rb, line 40:

    def self.revision
      revision = `git rev-parse HEAD`
      if revision.present?
        revision.strip[0..8]
      else
        nil
      end
    end

In production, I have no Git repository clone. This should definitely be modified to avoid any error output. It's especially annoying in my cron tasks, as every single one outputs the same error notice to my inbox.

I'll make a ticket.
