自动将本地Github存储库与服务器上的目录同步

Question

I have been attempting to use hooks to automatically pull the updated repo from github to my remote web server. This is the code on the post-receive hook:

cd /home/[my username]/document_root/[github repo name]/
git pull origin master

I expect this to run when there is a new commit from my development machine that syncs with the one on github, but it doesn't update the files inside of that repo directory. Any help is appreciated, but I am new to using git and github in general.

EDIT: I tried to follow this tutorial but it still doesn't work. http://ryanflorence.com/deploying-websites-with-a-tiny-git-hook/

Answer 1

You can push git post-hook to Github. Instead, you can use Github's Webhooks

Answer 2

you can customize a schedule with crontab. for example, crontab -e , and input 5 * * * snyc_git.sh

Then it will snyc your respository.
