Install a Git adapter

Install a Git adapter as a post-receive hook on Mac OS X/Linux.

Minimum requirements:

Git 1.8.3.1 or later.
python 2.6. Version 3.0 and later are not compatible.

Each external Git repository you wish to monitor with TeamForge Orchestrate requires the installation of a customized post-receive hook script as follows.

Install Git post-receive hooks

Contact the CollabNet Support to download the eventQ-git-adapter-[version].zip adapter file and unpack it inside your repository's hooks directory. For example, if your repository's hooks directory is located at /path/to/repo.git/hooks :
cd /path/to/repo.git/hooks

Download the zip file to the current location, then:

unzip Orchestrate-git-adapter-1.0.zip
This will unpack the following into your hooks directory:
- Files: LICENSE.txt README.txt post_receive_orc_publish_amqp.conf.sample post_receive_orc_publish_amqp.py
- Directories: orchestrate/ pika/

Configuration
