Note that many files can change in one commit. You probably want your ssh
command to do an update of a working copy where the tests are performed which
will pick up all the changes. Also note that additional commits may happen
before earlier runs are complete - I'm not sure if these block or if your
scripts have to deal with it. Scheduling runs and collating the results are
just a few of the advantages of using hudson.
