Git repo not usable outside SCM-Manager

  • bug description (occurred issue): 1) In the filesystem, the file info/refs is missing. According to Git - http-protocol Documentation , this file is mandatory to the “dumb” protocol. We use the dumb protocol after a rsync of the repo to another server
    2) git gc job configured via the SCM-Manager GUI removes the files under refs/heads

  • expected result / system behavior: in the filesystem, the stored repository is a valid git repository

  • observed result / system behavior: SCM-Manager is working fine. Just the replicas of the git repos are not usable outside of SCM-Manager.

  • SCM-Manager version and installed package: 3.11.5

(Please also add Screenshots of the issue + if possible a trace created by the SCM-Manager support plugin)
