We are running another apache server on boss, on port 51369, which invokes a backend perl script that maps the URL path argument to the profile, and then calls out to manage_profile to pull from the repository and update the profile to reflect the new HEAD branch. Using mod_rewrite in the apache config to restrict URLs to exactly the one URL that is accepted, modulo the value of the secret token. I had to refactor a bunch of code in manage_profile to make it easier to add a new entrypoint for modification from a git repo. This needed to be done for a long time, I had never cleaned up the original profile creation code. On the edit profile web page, there is a new row in the Repository panel providing the Push URL, and an explanatory help modal. There is a new slow polling timer that looks for a change to the repo hash and causes the web page to update in place from the repo, as when a push hook is invoked and changes the repo.
