I was curious if any git command exists to automate things by fetching a repo and executing a script within it. I am using git-subtree now and i am very much impressed with how git can be extended with such hacks to add custom powerful functionalities. Most of the times when we are releasing our code, we have to publish installation instructions in the README file or in our blog posts. These instructions are usually a set of shell commands most probably starting from a git clone. Something like 'git install http://github.com/user/repo.git' would fetch the repo and execute instructions from the file .gitinstall available in the repo. So the user doesn't need to do git clone, ./configure, make, etc.
Does something like this already exist? Would creating such git command be a good idea or are there better alternatives?
