2014-04-07git-multimail: update to version 1.0.0Libravatar Michael Haggerty1-2/+2
This commit contains the squashed changes from the upstream git-multimail repository since the last code drop. Highlights: * Fix encoding of non-ASCII email addresses in email headers. * Fix backwards-compatibility bugs for older Python 2.x versions. * Fix a backwards-compatibility bug for Git 1.7.1. * Add an option commitDiffOpts to customize logs for revisions. * Pass "-oi" to sendmail by default to prevent premature termination on a line containing only ".". * Stagger email "Date:" values in an attempt to help mail clients thread the emails in the right order. * If a mailing list setting is missing, just skip sending the corresponding email (with a warning) instead of failing. * Add a X-Git-Host header that can be used for email filtering. * Allow the sender's fully-qualified domain name to be configured. * Minor documentation improvements. * Add a CHANGES file.

2013-07-15git-multimail: an improved replacement for post-receive-emailLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+15
Add git-multimail, a tool for generating notification emails for pushes to a Git repository. It is largely plug-in compatible with post-receive-email, and is proposed to eventually replace that script. The advantages of git-multimail relative to post-receive-email are described in README.migrate-from-post-receive-email. git-multimail is organized in a directory contrib/hooks/multimail. The directory contains: * git_multimail.py -- a Python module that can generate notification emails for pushes to a Git repository. The file can be used directly as a post-receive script (configured via git config settings), or it can be imported as a Python module and configured via arbitrary Python code. * README -- user-level documentation for configuring and using git-multimail. * post-receive -- an example of building a post-receive script that imports git_multimail.py as a Python module, with an example of how to change the email templates. * README.migrate-from-post-receive-email -- documentation targeted at current users of post-receive-email, explaining the differences and how to migrate a post-receive-email configuration to git-multimail. * migrate-mailhook-config -- a script that can migrate a user's post-receive-email configuration options to the equivalent git-multimail options. * README.Git -- a short explanation of the relationship between git-multimail and the rest of the Git project, plus the exact date and revision when this version was taken from the upstream project. All but the last file are taken verbatim from the upstream git-multimail project. git-multimail is originally derived from post-receive-email and also incorporates suggestions from the mailing list as well as patches by the people listed below.
