Before I begin, I know there are a lot of questions similar to this one, but I am really having difficulty finding a concise, secure, best practice since the feedback on them has been so widely varied.
I have git installed on my local machine and the remote server. I can push mods to the development branch to git. On the remote server, I can pull the updates and it works like a charm. The problem is that I cannot get the remote server to automatically update when changes are pushed from my local machine.
git init
or git init --bare
? I don't plan on having updates made on the server itself. I would like my dev team to work locally and push mods to the server. I believe I need to use git init as the working tree is needed to set-up a remote alias to the git repository, but I wanted to confirm.I am a web developer by nature, so git and sysadmin tasks are generally the bane of my existence. Again, I know this question is similar to others, but I have yet to find a comprehensive, concise, secure, and most logical approach to resolving the issue. I am about 16 hours in and have officially hit the "going in circles with no progress" point.
You can do this quite easily with GitHub service hooks.
You ll need to create one more file that will handle the process of performing the git pull. Add a new file, called github.php (or anything you wish ), and add:
<?php `git pull`;
Save that file, and upload it to the repository directory on your server. Then, go to Services Hooks -> Post-Receive URL
and copy the URL to that file, and paste it into the “Post-Receive URL” Eg http://demo.test.com/myfolder/github.php
So, when you push, GitHub will automatically visit this URL, thus causing your server to perform a git pull
.

I had the same exact issue, strong in code and development skills, weak in sysadmin skills. When I was finally ready to push code I had to ask a GitHub rep what their suggested method was, and they responded with Capistrano. It's a Ruby application that runs commands (such as git pull) on remote servers, along with pretty much any other command you can imagine.
Here a few articles you can read to get more info:
Not going to lie, the learning curve was pretty steep, but once you start working with Capistrano, you will see that it works well for pushing code. I develop my applications in Symfony and I have my Capistrano set-up to pull code, clear cache and clear log files, all in one command from my local machine.
