ffc team mailing list archive

[Anders Logg <logg@xxxxxxxxx>]

I thought about this some more, and I got it working (somewhat).
Emails are now generated to ffc-dev@xxxxxxxxxx whenever something is
pushed to the primary repository. The email contains a summary of the
last three changesets (although the push may contain more changesets).

Here's the setup for reference.

In .hg/hgrc in the primary repository (the one we're pushing to):

[hooks]
changegroup = '/path/to/script/notify-ffc.sh'

The script notify-ffc.sh looks as follows:

#!/bin/sh

TMPFILE="/tmp/hgmessage.log"

rm -f $TMPFILE

echo "\
One or more new changesets pushed to the primary FFC repository.
A short summary of the last three changesets is included below.
" >> $TMPFILE

cd /home/fenics/hg/projects/ffc
hg log -vr -1:-3 >> $TMPFILE

echo "\
----------------------------------------------------
For more details, visit http://www.fenics.org/hg/ffc"; >> $TMPFILE

SUBJECT="[HG] "`hg log -r tip | grep "^summary:" | cut -b 14-`
cat $TMPFILE  | mail -s "$SUBJECT" ffc-dev@xxxxxxxxxx
