Actually this could (and should) be a post-commit hook for an immediate
sync.

Yes.

Both work, and this depends on your network behind it. Ensure that you
have at least one layer of encryption and authentication.

Yes you can sync in this way, the sync can be run from any host
including a third one (but I recommend server hooks). The sync can also
be done via URLs (ports) deviating from the usual or declared sync target.
