If you have the admin rights on an err chatbot simply use :

!install err-gitbot

in order to install the plugin. Then !help to see the available commands and their explanation.

Some tips here :

To track all the branches of a repo just say with the repo url i.e.: !follow git://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc.git

Err will extract smartly the name "xbmc" from it.

if you want to follow a specific branches instead of everything just : !follow git://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc.git Eden-pvr Dharma

If you redo a follow this time simply with the symbolic name you can add new branches to track : !git follow xbmc staging

Or you can remove a specific branch with !unfollow : !git unfollow xbmc staging

Or the repo alltogether !git unfollow xbmc

If at any point you are lost, you can ask the list of currently followed repos / branches with : !git following

Note : If you have several chatrooms defined in your err config, it will only "spam" the first one.
