var sys = require('sys')
var GitHubApi = require('./lib/github').GitHubApi
//May want to use Jerk later. :/

var bot = new IRC(options)

bot.connect(function() {bot.join('#stackvm')})

trackBranch("jesusabdullah", "anisotropy", "master",
    function(x) { bot.privmsg('#stackvm', x) }

    gh.getCommitApi().getBranchCommits(username, repo, branch, checker )

    function checker(err, commits) {
        var oldCommitId = commits[0].id //Set to 1 for testing (should be 0)

            while ( i < commits.length && commits[i].id !== oldCommitId ) {
                if (i==0) {shout("Whoa nelly! New commits to "+username+"/"+repo+" ("+branch+")!")}
                shout("    * "+commits[i].author.name+": "+commits[i].message)
