Update applications running with Systemctl once there is a newer version on remote repository

I'm currently running multiple smaller web applications on a small scale server, and I set them up to be started and restarted with a systemctl service, I specifically made these apps a systemctl service so they automatically get started on system boot and restarted if they crash.

Now I want to also update and build the applications on the server once there is a newer version on the remote repository, the server itself can't check if there is a newer version available on the repository, the server also can't launch any scripts, and setting the systemctl service to launch a script would not restart the service again if it crashes, since the script would still be running. How would I approach this problem correctly? Are there any tools that do this specifically?

Some other information:

  • The applications are made in C#, with .Net 5.0
  • The repository is a simple public one hosted on Github

My current folder structure is the following.

.
`-- applications
    |
    |-- application1
    |   |-- build/ (Binary started from service sits in here)
    |   |-- src/
    |   `-- application1.service
    |
    |-- application2
    |   |-- build/
    |   |-- src/
    |   `-- application2.service
    |
    `-- application3
        |-- build/
        |-- src/

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
