New Feature: Commit Webhook

Sounds like VIP developers really like webhooks 🙂

Based on a request on the original announcement for Deploy Webhook (Thanks Chris!), we added another one, this time for commits.

Now you can get pings via a simple webhook whenever a commit for your theme or plugin code is pushed to the subversion repo.

Same as before, you can specify your webhook endpoints in file called wpcom-meta.php in the root of your theme:

<?php
/**
 * Commit Webhook: http://example.com/path/to/endpoint.php
 */

Endpoints can be a comma-separated list of URLs.

Commit Webhook: http://example.com/path/to/endpoint.php,http://example.com/path/to/alternate.php 

Endpoints will receive something like the following as POST data:

array (
    'repo' => 'vip',
    'theme' => 'test-theme',
    'revision' => '1234',
    'committer' => 'batmoo',
)

Leave a comment here if you have any suggestions for improvements or other webhooks we could add. We’d also love to hear what you end up doing with these!
