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.

"""Example post-receive hook based on git-multimail.
|
|
|
|
This script is a simple example of a post-receive hook implemented
|
|
using git_multimail.py as a Python module. It is intended to be
|
|
customized before use; see the comments in the script to help you get
|
|
started.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to use git_multimail.py itself as a post-receive or
|
|
update hook, configured via git config settings and/or command-line
|
|
parameters. But for more flexibility, it can also be imported as a
|
|
Python module by a custom post-receive script as done here. The
|
|
latter has the following advantages:
|
|
|
|
* The tool's behavior can be customized using arbitrary Python code,
|
|
without having to edit git_multimail.py.
|
|
|
|
* Configuration settings can be read from other sources; for example,
|
|
user names and email addresses could be read from LDAP or from a
|
|
database. Or the settings can even be hardcoded in the importing
|
|
Python script, if this is preferred.
|
|
|
|
This script is a very basic example of how to use git_multimail.py as
|
|
a module. The comments below explain some of the points at which the
|
|
script's behavior could be changed or customized.
