Get Zulip notifications for your Git repositories!

1. {!create-a-bot-indented.md!}

2. {!download-python-bindings.md!}

3. {!create-stream.md!}

4. {!change-zulip-config-file-indented.md!}

   You may also need to change the value of STREAM_NAME.

   You can specify the branches that will be used for notifications by modifying the commit_notice_destination function. By default, pushes to the main, master, and test-post-receive branches will result in a notification.

5. Symlink /usr/local/share/zulip/integrations/git/zulip_git_config.py to the .git/hooks directory of your Git repository.

6. Symlink /usr/local/share/zulip/integrations/git/post-receive to the .git/hooks directory of your Git repository.

!!! tip ""

You can test the plugin without changing your `main` branch by
pushing to the `test-post-receive` branch.
