• using an rss feed parser, have it check this feed for new items (commits)
• when a new commit is made, send a POST request to https://api.github.com/repos/<YOUR_REPO>/dispatches with this info (docs)
  • headers:
    • Accept: application/vnd.github+json _{(might not need, idk)}
    • Content-Type: application/json
    • Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_TOKEN> (see here)
  • body:
    • {"event_type": "<YOUR_DISPATCH_ID>"}
