1svnbot -- A commit notification bot:

3As nice as the CIA Open Source Notification System[1] is, I wanted
4something a little more simple.  I was not overly interested in
5statistics, and Trac[2] provides most of what I need in a web-based
6interface to Subversion[3], I just wanted a simple IRC bot that would
7alert people when something is committed to a repository.

9Since I have been present in the #trac IRC channel on Freenode, I have
10noticed whippingboy[4].  I am told this is just a Supybot[5] with an RSS
11plugin, which polls Trac's timeline RSS feed from a cron job.

14REQUIREMENTS
15
16svnbot is written in Python, and uses the Twisted API:
17
18  * Python (>=2.2), from http://python.org/
19  * Twisted 1.3, from http://twistedmatrix.com/ (untested in Twisted 2)

22USAGE
23
24Twisted provides packaging facilities to supposedly make things easy on
25running and configuring Twisted applications, but I haven't done that
26yet. :)
27
28Instead, edit svnbot.py to change the IRC server and channel, and run
29with:
30
31    twistd -oy svnbot.py
