 * Sorry I figured it out. I was trying to use the Category and Tag fields rather
   than Single Line Text.
 * Should have read the documentation closer.

 * Changed the permissions to the same as the rest of the wordpress install bitnami:
   daemon, but alas that’s not the answer. Getting the same error and the help screen
   still says _false_ on permissions.
 * Do you get this any other time on AWS? Do I need to create one of these index.
   lock files manually?
 * Any other ideas?

 * What permission is lacking a group permission or something? The directory where
   the repo is located has write permissions set.
 * **Any thoughts?**

 * I’ve continued to fiddle with this.
 * I have about 20 files staged, but when I try to commit. I get on the commit page:
 * _There was an error committing the files. Make sure that your Git username and
   email is set, and that Revisr has write permissions to the “.git” directory._
 * On the dashboard the event reads:
    _Error committing the changes to the local
   repository._
 * Your help is appreciated.

 * Some headway. I was able to use the ‘git pull’ from the command line. This seems
   to have the local at the right point now. When I went into Revisr it read the
   push, so the HTTPS seems to be working. That resolves the remote.
 * This is from the dashboard. “_Successfully pushed 2 commits to origin/master._“
 * However, when I tried to do a commit from Revisr, I got an error that it can’t
   write to the local. This is the error.
 * _There was an error committing the files. Make sure that your Git username and
   email is set, and that Revisr has write permissions to the “.git” directory._
 * I did a “git config –global” on the username and email, and it still gets the
   same error.
 * What do you think is wrong with the permissions to write?
 * I added: _define( ‘REVISR\_GIT\_PATH’, ‘/usr/bin/git’ );_ to the wp-config.php
   already. Then I restarted Apace. Do I need to do something to WordPress to get
   it to read the config change?

 * Acted on the hint above to do a ‘git pull’
 * Still failed. This is the error detail.
 * error: unable to create directory for .git/logs/refs/remotes/origin/master
 * Seems like this is a file permissions problem. I don’t get it though the .git
   directory is set to 777 note even 775.
 * The .git directory is in the same level as the index.php for the wordpress site.

 * Hi,
 * I tried putting in the HTTPS version. It failed, but the error detail was different.
 * To [https://[username](https://[username)}:[password]@github.com/[organization]/[
   directory]
    ! [rejected] HEAD -> master (non-fast-forward) error: failed to push
   some refs to ‘[https://[username](https://[username)}:[password]@github.com/[
   organization]/[directory]’ hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your
   current branch is behind hint: its remote counterpart. Integrate the remote changes(
   e.g. hint: ‘git pull …’) before pushing again. hint: See the ‘Note about fast-
   forwards’ in ‘git push –help’ for details.
 * I don’t think this fixed the SSH problem, and file permissions still reads as“
   false”.
 * Maybe it sheds some light on the problem for you.

 * Actually, I left out that I tried HTTPS first.
 * This is actually a Bitnami image on an AWS Instance. So I control the instance
   completely.

   where the issue actually occurs.
