I installed git on my server but I want it to pull from my github repo whenever I push the changes I made locally.
I've looked into hooks but it's very confusing and I can't find any tutorials. Does anyone know how to do that?
I want my server to pull from the repo after each commit
That looks like a webhook: your server would listen to a pull event (JSON payload) emitted by GitHub.
You will find many example of listener, like zenhacks/github-webhook-listener
in CoffeeScript.
