I do not understand why a solution based on sudo forces root ownership. IIRC, the problem scenario is that www-data needs to run hooks under the UID of a human user? In that case, would it not be possible to give www-data selective sudo access to run, say, /repository/hooks/post-commit.body, and have /repository/hooks/post-commit being a script which uses sudo to invoke post-commit.body ? Max.
