Staticbot

Staticbot is a server program that:

1. Receives notification that a static site's source has been updated,
2. Compiles the new source of the static site, and
3. Pushes the compiled source to a destination

The original workflow is as follows:

1. Someone changes a preprocessable file (e.g., markdown, coffee-script, Sass, etc) on a "source" branch on GitHub,
2. Staticbot sees that change, takes the new information, and compiles it, and
3. Pushes the compiled version to a "master" or "gh-pages" branch on the same GitHub repo.

That is, if Alice maintains a site on GitHub Pages and Bob submits a simple pull request, Alice can accept it without having to compile Bob's changes locally: Staticbot does that for her.
