Description

Gitea's post-receive script (part of its git hook mechanism) is not executing scripts in post-receive.d.
Its test -x command to check for executable files in post-receive.d directory always exits with code 1, even when testing a file that has executable flag set.

Running in Docker, gitea 1.18.5.

May be related to https://github.com/alpinelinux/docker-alpine/issues/156 and #21455.
