[gst-devel] Syncmail

[Richard Boulton]

Some more details about my modified syncmail script.

1) It requires an entry in CVSROOT/commitinfo as well as
   CVSROOT/loginfo, so that it can do the commit grouping. 
2) It can be entirely configured on the command line (ie, in the entry
   in CVSROOT/loginfo), so the actual CVSROOT/syncmail script should
   never need changing: I have three projects using the script - this
   property makes maintainance much easier.
3) The emails are in a slightly nicer format, in my opinion, though this
   can be configured to some extent.
4) The code is quite a bit larger, but well commented and structured, so
   improving it is quite easy.  I also have a very good understanding of
   the code (since I did most of the modifications), so you have access
   to the skills required to customise it as you wish.
5) I knew of only one bug in the script, and I fixed that this morning.
   ;-)
6) It can either produce a set of links to a viewcvs interface, or put
   the actual patches into the email (or both).

I attach an example commit mailing generated by the script.

If people wish, I can spend a little time this evening and put it in
place for gstreamer.

Changed pointers to xapian.org where appropriate.
Removed an out of date copyright message that listed BSN only (it's not
really feasible to have a code-wide copyright statement now).
