5 # An example hook script to mail out commit update information. This hook
6 # sends emails listing new revisions to the repository introduced by the
7 # change being reported. The rule is that (for branch updates) each commit
8 # will appear on one email and one email only.
10 # This hook is stored in the contrib/hooks directory. Your distribution
11 # will have put this somewhere standard. You should make this script
12 # executable then link to it in the repository you would like to use it in.
13 # For example, on debian the hook is stored in
14 # /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email:
16 # chmod a+x post-receive-email
17 # cd /path/to/your/repository.git
18 # ln -sf /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email hooks/post-receive
20 # This hook script assumes it is enabled on the central repository of a
21 # project, with all users pushing only to it and not between each other. It
22 # will still work if you don't operate in that style, but it would become
23 # possible for the email to be from someone other than the person doing the
29 # This is the list that all pushes will go to; leave it blank to not send
30 # emails for every ref update.
32 # This is the list that all pushes of annotated tags will go to. Leave it
33 # blank to default to the mailinglist field. The announce emails lists
34 # the short log summary of the changes since the last annotated tag.
35 # hooks.envelopesender
36 # If set then the -f option is passed to sendmail to allow the envelope
37 # sender address to be set
39 # All emails have their subjects prefixed with this prefix, or "[SCM]"
40 # if emailprefix is unset, to aid filtering
44 # All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
45 # "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and
46 # give information for debugging.

252 # assume that an email has already been generated.
253 # In this case we want to issue an email containing only revisions
254 # 3, 4, and N. Given (almost) by
256 # git rev-list N ^O --not --all
258 # The reason for the "almost", is that the "--not --all" will take
259 # precedence over the "N", and effectively will translate to
261 # git rev-list N ^O ^X ^N
263 # So, we need to build up the list more carefully. git rev-parse
264 # will generate a list of revs that may be fed into git rev-list.
265 # We can get it to make the "--not --all" part and then filter out
268 # git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v N
270 # Then, using the --stdin switch to git rev-list we have effectively
273 # git rev-list N ^O ^X
275 # This leaves a problem when someone else updates the repository
276 # while this script is running. Their new value of the ref we're
277 # working on would be included in the "--not --all" output; and as
278 # our $newrev would be an ancestor of that commit, it would exclude
279 # all of our commits. What we really want is to exclude the current
280 # value of $refname from the --not list, rather than N itself. So:
282 # git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git rev-parse $refname)
284 # Get's us to something pretty safe (apart from the small time
285 # between refname being read, and git rev-parse running - for that,
289 # Next problem, consider this:
290 # * --- B --- * --- O ($oldrev)
292 # * --- X --- * --- N ($newrev)
294 # That is to say, there is no guarantee that oldrev is a strict
295 # subset of newrev (it would have required a --force, but that's
296 # allowed). So, we can't simply say rev-list $oldrev..$newrev.
297 # Instead we find the common base of the two revs and list from
300 # As above, we need to take into account the presence of X; if
301 # another branch is already in the repository and points at some of
302 # the revisions that we are about to output - we don't want them.
303 # The solution is as before: git rev-parse output filtered.
305 # Finally, tags: 1 --- 2 --- O --- T --- 3 --- 4 --- N
307 # Tags pushed into the repository generate nice shortlog emails that
308 # summarise the commits between them and the previous tag. However,
309 # those emails don't include the full commit messages that we output
310 # for a branch update. Therefore we still want to output revisions
311 # that have been output on a tag email.
313 # Luckily, git rev-parse includes just the tool. Instead of using
314 # "--all" we use "--branches"; this has the added benefit that
315 # "remotes/" will be ignored as well.
