We have a jhbuild tinderbox setup for the X modules on freedesktop.org, which builds out of git:

  http://tinderbox.freedesktop.org/

Which Chris Ball set up. I don't know the details of the setup, except that it probably involves a cronscript, the jhbuild tinderbox command (http://www.gnome.org/~jamesh/jhbuild.html#command-reference-tinderbox) and uses the jhbuild moduleset we maintain over here:

  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/modular

Look for the xorg.modules file.
