5 # An example hook script to mail out commit update information.
7 # NOTE: This script is no longer under active development. There
8 # is another script, git-multimail, which is more capable and
9 # configurable and is largely backwards-compatible with this script;
10 # please see "contrib/hooks/multimail/". For instructions on how to
11 # migrate from post-receive-email to git-multimail, please see
12 # "README.migrate-from-post-receive-email" in that directory.
14 # This hook sends emails listing new revisions to the repository
15 # introduced by the change being reported. The rule is that (for
16 # branch updates) each commit will appear on one email and one email
17 # only.
19 # This hook is stored in the contrib/hooks directory. Your distribution
20 # will have put this somewhere standard. You should make this script
21 # executable then link to it in the repository you would like to use it in.
22 # For example, on debian the hook is stored in
23 # /usr/share/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email:
25 # cd /path/to/your/repository.git
26 # ln -sf /usr/share/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email hooks/post-receive
28 # This hook script assumes it is enabled on the central repository of a
29 # project, with all users pushing only to it and not between each other. It
30 # will still work if you don't operate in that style, but it would become
31 # possible for the email to be from someone other than the person doing the
32 # push.
34 # To help with debugging and use on pre-v1.5.1 git servers, this script will
35 # also obey the interface of hooks/update, taking its arguments on the
36 # command line. Unfortunately, hooks/update is called once for each ref.
37 # To avoid firing one email per ref, this script just prints its output to
38 # the screen when used in this mode. The output can then be redirected if
39 # wanted.
41 # Config
42 # ------
43 # hooks.mailinglist
44 # This is the list that all pushes will go to; leave it blank to not send
45 # emails for every ref update.
46 # hooks.announcelist
47 # This is the list that all pushes of annotated tags will go to. Leave it
48 # blank to default to the mailinglist field. The announce emails lists
49 # the short log summary of the changes since the last annotated tag.
50 # hooks.envelopesender
51 # If set then the -f option is passed to sendmail to allow the envelope
52 # sender address to be set
53 # hooks.emailprefix
54 # All emails have their subjects prefixed with this prefix, or "[SCM]"
55 # if emailprefix is unset, to aid filtering
56 # hooks.showrev
57 # The shell command used to format each revision in the email, with
58 # "%s" replaced with the commit id. Defaults to "git rev-list -1
59 # --pretty %s", displaying the commit id, author, date and log
60 # message. To list full patches separated by a blank line, you
61 # could set this to "git show -C %s; echo".
62 # To list a gitweb/cgit URL *and* a full patch for each change set, use this:
63 # "t=%s; printf 'http://.../?id=%%s' \$t; echo;echo; git show -C \$t; echo"
64 # Be careful if "..." contains things that will be expanded by shell "eval"
65 # or printf.
66 # hooks.emailmaxlines
67 # The maximum number of lines that should be included in the generated
68 # email body. If not specified, there is no limit.
69 # Lines beyond the limit are suppressed and counted, and a final
70 # line is added indicating the number of suppressed lines.
71 # hooks.diffopts
72 # Alternate options for the git diff-tree invocation that shows changes.
73 # Default is "--stat --summary --find-copies-harder". Add -p to those
74 # options to include a unified diff of changes in addition to the usual
75 # summary output.
77 # Notes
78 # -----
79 # All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
80 # "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and
81 # give information for debugging.

294 # Consider this:
295 # 1 --- 2 --- O --- X --- 3 --- 4 --- N
297 # O is $oldrev for $refname
298 # N is $newrev for $refname
299 # X is a revision pointed to by some other ref, for which we may
300 # assume that an email has already been generated.
301 # In this case we want to issue an email containing only revisions
302 # 3, 4, and N. Given (almost) by
304 # git rev-list N ^O --not --all
306 # The reason for the "almost", is that the "--not --all" will take
307 # precedence over the "N", and effectively will translate to
309 # git rev-list N ^O ^X ^N
311 # So, we need to build up the list more carefully. git rev-parse
312 # will generate a list of revs that may be fed into git rev-list.
313 # We can get it to make the "--not --all" part and then filter out
314 # the "^N" with:
316 # git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v N
318 # Then, using the --stdin switch to git rev-list we have effectively
319 # manufactured
321 # git rev-list N ^O ^X
323 # This leaves a problem when someone else updates the repository
324 # while this script is running. Their new value of the ref we're
325 # working on would be included in the "--not --all" output; and as
326 # our $newrev would be an ancestor of that commit, it would exclude
327 # all of our commits. What we really want is to exclude the current
328 # value of $refname from the --not list, rather than N itself. So:
330 # git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git rev-parse $refname)
332 # Get's us to something pretty safe (apart from the small time
333 # between refname being read, and git rev-parse running - for that,
334 # I give up)
337 # Next problem, consider this:
338 # * --- B --- * --- O ($oldrev)
340 # * --- X --- * --- N ($newrev)
342 # That is to say, there is no guarantee that oldrev is a strict
343 # subset of newrev (it would have required a --force, but that's
344 # allowed). So, we can't simply say rev-list $oldrev..$newrev.
345 # Instead we find the common base of the two revs and list from
346 # there.
348 # As above, we need to take into account the presence of X; if
349 # another branch is already in the repository and points at some of
350 # the revisions that we are about to output - we don't want them.
351 # The solution is as before: git rev-parse output filtered.
353 # Finally, tags: 1 --- 2 --- O --- T --- 3 --- 4 --- N
355 # Tags pushed into the repository generate nice shortlog emails that
356 # summarise the commits between them and the previous tag. However,
357 # those emails don't include the full commit messages that we output
358 # for a branch update. Therefore we still want to output revisions
359 # that have been output on a tag email.
361 # Luckily, git rev-parse includes just the tool. Instead of using
362 # "--all" we use "--branches"; this has the added benefit that
363 # "remotes/" will be ignored as well.
