Clone this repository and build it locally, for this you need Git, Maven and JDK 8.
$ git clone https://github.com/porcelli/bc-git-integration-push.git
$ cd bc-git-integration-push
$ mvn clean install
$ mkdir -p $APP_SERVER_HOME/hooks/ && cp target/git-push-2.1-SNAPSHOT.jar $APP_SERVER_HOME/hooks/The application uses a configuration file .gitremote that is located under the user home directory, if you don’t want to start from scratch, you can start running the jar file for the first time after the setup above or just as java -jar git-push-2.1-SNAPSHOT.jar, the application will generate a template configuration file in $HOME/.gitremote that you can follow and modify.

Create a post-commit hook template for Business Central and, finally, start the Business Central with the org.uberfire.nio.git.hooks properly set.
$ cd $APP_SERVER_HOME
$ echo "#\!/bin/bash\njava -jar $APP_SERVER_HOME/hooks/git-push-2.1-SNAPSHOT.jar" > hooks/post-commit
$ chmod 755 hooks/post-commit
$ ./bin/standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml -Dorg.uberfire.nio.git.hooks=$APP_SERVER_HOME/hooks/Important note: remember to replace $APP_SERVER_HOME by the real path of your application server home, in my case: $HOME/jboss-eap-7.2/.
