I tried creating the custom hooks, added the following to gitlab.rb

gitaly['custom_hooks_dir'] = "/var/opt/gitlab/gitaly/custom_hooks"

created 2 files in that directory /var/opt/gitlab/gitaly/custom_hooks/pre-receive

#!/bin/sh
exit 0

/var/opt/gitlab/gitaly/custom_hooks/post-receive

#!/bin/sh
exit 0
