Samples

This packet changes the name and the deployment path of a repository and adds the deployment actions:

<packet>
  <extension>
    <call>
      <git>
        <update>
          <domain>example.com</domain>
          <name>repo1</name>
          <new-name>new-repo1</new-name>
          <deployment-path>httpdocs</deployment-path>
          <actions>touch /tmp/test.txt</actions>
        </update>
      </git>
    </call>
  </extension>
</packet>

Response:

<packet>
  <extension>
    <call>
