Build process generates error "Failed to read Git log: fatal: not a git repository"
Pushing to the web server triggers a build (via the post receive hook). The build works as expected, but an error is raised:
Failed to read Git log: fatal: not a git repository: '.'
Hugo build seems to be calling a git command outside a git repo. It looks like the issue is discussed here: https://kamaradski.com/hugo-cicd-giterror/
The simplest fix seems to be to set enableGitInfo
to False

From a quick look at the docs, it seems this flag is used to generate "last modified" dates that are displayed on some themes.
