## Github Webhook
A simple webhook server, which saves a github repository whenever changes were made.
Inspired from [this webhook api](https://github.com/go-playground/webhooks).
The library is pretty useful, but too overloaded for my purposes.
#### Requires
- [gorilla/mux](https://github.com/gorilla/mux), but if you want to, you can easily cut out the gurilla/mux api and replace it with the api you prefer
### Usage
1. Create a repository [webhook](https://docs.github.com/en/developers/webhooks-and-events/creating-webhooks) on github.
2. Not necessary, but highly recommended: Choose a [secret](https://docs.github.com/en/developers/webhooks-and-events/securing-your-webhooks) for the webhook.
3. Set the value of `gitTree` in [main.go](main.go#L19) to the directory you want to clone the repositories in.
4. Set the value of `secret` in [main.go](main.go#L20) to the secret, you have chosen in step 2.
5. Set the callback path in the `main` method in [main.go](main.go#L406) to the path you have chosen when creating the webhook.
6. Set the port in the `main` method in [main.go](main.go#L408) to the port github is sending the webhook callback.
