How to automate the updating of AMI images in AWS?

I've created an AWS AMI image in which have all my required applications installed in it.Later on I used autoscaling to create ec2 instances from the AMI image (in which I created before). what I need to do is: Updating the codes inside the AMI image,so the instances will use the new version.and this happens often, I know that I can create a new image every time, but is there anyway to automate this process? for instance, updating it directly from git, or jenkins or .... How can I possibility automate this process?
