git error into public directory

[Reddy]

Hi guys,

i m facing an issue using git in the public folder of LAMP

the error is whatever i try any git command:

fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/app/data/public'
To add an exception for this directory, call:

    git config --global --add  safe.directory /app/data/public

When i try the previous command i got another error:

error: could not lock config file /root/.gitconfig: Read-only file system

Using sudo didn't solve my issue.

Thank you for your help

try setting the HOME env var like so:
export HOME=/app/data

then retry the git command
