Subject: jabber notifications for git commits
Is it possible to integrate jabber and git so that I get notified when new commits are available on our central git repo host? I need to install some hook on the git server, of course.
We use gitosis.
Best regards,

Well, the problem isn't really in the hooks but in how to connect to a Jabber-server. For the few svn-repos I'm using (on my own server that is) I'm using xmpp4r (a Ruby-jabber implementation). svn triggers a commit-hook which calls my ruby-script and supplies the jabber-contacts with commit-message, changed files and so on.
You can find the ruby-script here: http://avalon.hoffentlich.net/~heipei/tmp/jabber_notification.rb and have fun adapting it to your needs and making sure that xmpp4r is installed ;)

If you can't get xmpp4r onto the host that is the master for your project you could always put a hook there that pushes new changes to another host and calls xmpp4r there.
