• Abstract: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Git-CPAN-Hook

---

At the 2010 QA Hackathon in Vienna, a few people discussed the idea of controling a CPAN install with Git. Since this kind of endeavour requires a good interface between Perl and Git, a first yak needed to be shaved. See the talk about Git::Repository for details.

At the 2011 QA Hackathon in Amsterdam, I had my first proof of concept.

In this talk I'll show how I worked around the absence of hooks in CPAN.pm, what kind of data is stored in Git, and some plans for the future.

This module is still a work in progress, and some of talk may actually only be crazy talk.
