    Yes. You would have to create a script that listen to changes in the repo, then automatically pull those changes and compile it.

    1. check if repo contains new code
    2. if it doesnt go to step 1, if it does continue to step 3
    3. pull repo from github
    4. compile
    5. deploy the plugin to server
    6. schedule server for restart

  5. ^ In the first place, if it's a public plugin to be added on BukkitDev, I'm pretty sure this isn't allowed. You can only fetch files from Curse/BukkitDev.

    It can be done in Java, but you could also script it in shell/batch.
