My goal is to automatically pull from a private github repository every time a change is pushed to the master branch, but I'm not sure how I should go about this.

check this docs about github api pulls
example command
curl \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \
https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/hello-world/pulls
if the status is 200 then you will get a json response with metadata:
[
{
"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/pulls/1347",
"id": 1,
"node_id": "MDExOlB1bGxSZXF1ZXN0MQ==",
"html_url": "https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World/pull/1347",
"diff_url": "https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World/pull/1347.diff",
"patch_url": "https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World/pull/1347.patch",
"issue_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/issues/1347",
"commits_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/pulls/1347/commits",
"review_comments_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/pulls/1347/comments",
"review_comment_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/pulls/comments{/number}",
"comments_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/issues/1347/comments",
"statuses_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/statuses/6dcb09b5b57875f334f61aebed695e2e4193db5e",
"number": 1347,
....
i guess from here you need to apply the diffs and the patches manually (using git ofcouse)
"diff_url": "https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World/pull/1347.diff",
"patch_url": "https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World/pull/1347.patch",
to apply the patch using git, check this stack-post
to do that in python, you need to use requests library and call git as subprocess command
