How can I tell Trac about newly-added Git branches? Since talk about Git can get confusing quickly, here's a concrete example: Suppose I have a "central" Git server, foo.example.com, which my Trac installation exports, and on some host I:
$ git clone [email protected]:/path/to/repo.git
$ cd repo
$ git checkout -b test_branch
$ git push -u origin test_branch
I now have a new branch on the central server called "test_branch", yet this is not accessible from Trac. How can I 1) make it accessible (e.g. under the "Visit" drop-down box) and 2) make this happen automatically for any new branch?
Update: Maybe I should mention that the repository exported by Trac is not "the" central repo. It's owned by another user and currently the webserver user doesn't have access. Instead there's a separate repo owned by and exported by the web server user. Both the central repo and the web server happen to be on the same machine, though.

Read about Trac repository administration in the authoritative wiki documentation.
There is certainly no such thing like auto-discovery for repositories in a give path. You could use trac-admin calls from a terminal to add new repositories, if you dislike doing it via admin web-UI. And make sure to get repository synchronization right for every repository as well.
If this is a repeating task, you may want to write a simple Python script to do it all more efficiently.
