Hi! I am applying for Google Summer of Code 2015 with a project creating a new doc toolchain for CentOS. I plan to use GitHub to store a copy of the documentation, and users can send fork / send PR to this repo. Then a server program monitors this repo and syncs changes between GitHub and CentOS’s own git repo. So the key is to automatically sync repo between GitHub and CentOS. I think there are three steps to do a successful sync. First, the change on GitHub triggers the syncing process. I browsed the GitHub API reference and found that there is an API to retrieve a repo’s info, including its update time. Can we use this info to trigger the syncing process? Or are there any better ways to monitor the status of a GitHub repo? Second, the program gets the commits from GitHub, and merges them into CentOS’s git repo. Third, a notification / update info is sent or displayed. That’s my plan on this auto-sync program. I am glad to get all kinds of advice and comments. Thanks!
