Hmm... Nothing can be run on server, since git does not believe it is in
git repo:
$ strace git-update-server-info
execve("/usr/bin/git-update-server-info", ["git-update-server-info"], [/* 20 vars */]) = 0

... ommitting mapping and shared lib loading ...

getcwd("/home/s0mbre/public_html/archive/pohmelfs/pohmelfs.git", 4097) = 55
access(".git/refs/", X_OK)              = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
chdir("..")                             = 0
access(".git/refs/", X_OK)              = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
chdir("..")                             = 0
access(".git/refs/", X_OK)              = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
chdir("..")                             = 0
access(".git/refs/", X_OK)              = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
chdir("..")                             = 0
access(".git/refs/", X_OK)              = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

chdir("..")                             = 0
write(2, "fatal: ", 7fatal: )                  = 7
write(2, "Not a git repository", 20Not a git repository)    = 20
write(2, "\n", 1

Obviously there is no .git dir, since we are in it:

pohmelfs.git$ ls -l
total 14
-rw-r--r--  1 s0mbre s0mbre   23 May 13 21:33 HEAD
drwxr-xr-x  2 s0mbre s0mbre   48 May 13 21:33 branches
-rw-r--r--  1 s0mbre s0mbre   66 May 13 21:31 config
-rw-r--r--  1 s0mbre s0mbre   58 May 13 21:33 description
drwxr-xr-x  2 s0mbre s0mbre  328 May 13 21:33 hooks
drwxr-xr-x  2 s0mbre s0mbre   96 May 13 21:33 info

drwxr-xr-x  5 s0mbre s0mbre  120 May 26 10:20 refs

And it can not be accessed from higher layer, since its name is not
'.git', but 'pohmelfs.git'.

pohmelfs.git$ ls -l ../

I've updated by hand info/refs, which pointed to the previous revision,
but really thought it was mande somewhat automatically? It was created
when I made a exportable git tree, when I did git-update-server-info.
Git is a magic yet to resolve :)
