Auto-conflict detector

(c) 2013 Sortex Ltd., sortex.co.il github.com/sortex/git-conflict-detector

Runs as a webpage that listens to GitHub hook requests and alerts an HipChat room if a conflict has detected with other branches in the repository.

Setup

• Setup a webserver vhost
• Clone files into vhost root dir
• Generate an SSH key pair in the webserver's user dir, eg. /var/www/.ssh (See section below)
• Add the public key you generated into the repository's GitHub "Deploy Keys"
• Make sure .logs and .cache dirs have write permission for webserver's user
• Edit settings.php to reflect your needs

GitHub authentication

• For GitHub authentication through git command-line this script requires the webserver's user having an SSH key created in .ssh
• An easy way to test:
  • Temporarily change webserver's user shell from /bin/nologin to /bin/bash, if needed
  • Login as webserver's user
  • Generate key pair: ssh-keygen -t rsa
  • ssh git@github.com
  • You should see: "Hi foo! You've successfully authenticated" Note: Changing the webserver's user to /bin/bash can have certain security implications, make sure you know what you're doing
