The Twinkle project uses a Perl script to sync from Github to on-wiki JS: <https://github.com/azatoth/twinkle/blob/master/dev/sync.pl>
IIRC it's run manually, but one could conceivably run something similar in a CI/CD pipeline. That would, of course, mean storing interface administrator credentials and the tools to use them on third-party servers, which has some security risks. Using something similar to <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Auto-update_a_tool_from_GitHub> and handling the MW auth and deployment from WMCS servers may reduce some of those risks.
