With sufficiently recent git (>=1.6.0) _In the below examples, "git_user" and "project.git" should be modified for your GitHub project_ Set up a (bare) mirror of the source repository <pre> git clone --mirror git@github.com:git_user/project.git </pre> to fetch the changes <pre> cd project.git git fetch -q --all </pre> make fetching automatic by installing then install a crontask <pre> sudo vi /etc/cron.d/sync_git_repos */5 * * * * app cd /path/to/project.git && git fetch -q --all </pre> _*/5 in the last line defines the minute at which the synchronization takes place, for example, */2 would cause the sychronization to take place every two minutes. */5 causes the synchronization to take place on minutes divisible by 5 (5, 10, 15, etc.)_ h2.
