The command gets executed after every change to the storage and commits
the changes into the **git** repository.

For the hook to not cause errors either **git** user details need to be set and match the owner of the collections directory or the repository needs to be marked as safe.

When using the systemd unit file from the [Running as a service](#running-as-a-service) section this **cannot** be done via a `.gitconfig` file in the users home directory, as Radicale won't have read permissions!

In `/var/lib/radicale/collections` run:
```bash
git config user.name "radicale"
git config user.email "radicale@example.com"
```
