I use GitLab Community Edition 8.2 and want to add post-commit hook.

I created file path_to_project.git/custom_hooks/post-commit with rights

$ ls -l1 custom_hooks/post-commit
-rwxr-xr-x 1 git git 45 Dec 14 21:31 custom_hooks/post-commit

and content

#!/bin/bash
echo "test custom" > /tmp/hook

as described here: http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/hooks/custom_hooks.html

But it not work (check by commiting via web interface). I tried also 'normal' git hook placement (project.git/hooks/post-commit), but it not work also.

post-commit is a client-side hook and you can not implement it on server.

According to Gitlab documentation: http://doc.gitlab.com/ce/hooks/custom_hooks.html, you can implement a server-side custom hook (pre-receive, post-receive, and update) at the server.

Examples of server-side git hooks include pre-receive, post-receive, and update. See Git SCM Server-Side Hooks for more information about each hook type.

If you want to customize a client-side hook, you will need to change the original hook code or put your custom script at client under .git/hooks. Read more here: What are Git hooks?

And here is all about custom hooks: Customizing Git - Git Hooks
