Gitolite post-receive hook to trigger builds of Jenkins / Git jobs

post-receive-jenkins

#!/bin/bash

# place script in hooks dir in repo, rename post-receive-jenkins to post-receive, chmod +x file
# Gitolite [https://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite]
# Jenkins Git Plugin [https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin] 

# GL_REPO will contain the short relative path of the repository being pushed to, e.g. "projects/component-1", so transform it into the Git URL format that your Jenkins build jobs follow:
REPOSITORY_URL=git@gitolite.example.com:$GL_REPO

# Jenkins Git plugin notification URL -- update host as appropriate:
TRIGGER_URL=http://jenkins.example.com:8080/git/notifyCommit\?url=$REPOSITORY_URL

# You shouldn't need to modify anything beyond this line.
