   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.
   9 #
  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:
  15 #
  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
  19 #
  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
  24 # push.
  25 #
  26 # Config
  27 # ------
  28 # hooks.mailinglist
  29 #   This is the list that all pushes will go to; leave it blank to not send
  30 #   emails for every ref update.
  31 # hooks.announcelist
  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
  38 # hooks.emailprefix
  39 #   All emails have their subjects prefixed with this prefix, or "[SCM]"
  40 #   if emailprefix is unset, to aid filtering
  41 # hooks.showrev
  42 #   The shell command used to format each revision in the email, with
  43 #   "%s" replaced with the commit id.  Defaults to "git rev-list -1
  44 #   --pretty %s", displaying the commit id, author, date and log
  45 #   message.  To list full patches separated by a blank line, you
  46 #   could set this to "git show -C %s; echo".
  47 #   To list a gitweb/cgit URL *and* a full patch for each change set, use this:
  48 #     "t=%s; printf 'http://.../?id=%%s' \$t; echo;echo; git show -C \$t; echo"
  49 #   Be careful if "..." contains things that will be expanded by shell "eval"
  50 #   or printf.
  51 #
  52 # Notes
  53 # -----
  54 # All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
  55 # "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and
  56 # give information for debugging.

  61 #
  62 # Top level email generation function.  This decides what type of update
  63 # this is and calls the appropriate body-generation routine after outputting
  64 # the common header
  65 #
  66 # Note this function doesn't actually generate any email output, that is
  67 # taken care of by the functions it calls:
  68 #  - generate_email_header
  69 #  - generate_create_XXXX_email
  70 #  - generate_update_XXXX_email
  71 #  - generate_delete_XXXX_email

 248         #
 249         # O is $oldrev for $refname
 250         # N is $newrev for $refname
 251         # X is a revision pointed to by some other ref, for which we may
 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
 255         #
 256         #  git rev-list N ^O --not --all
 257         #
 258         # The reason for the "almost", is that the "--not --all" will take
 259         # precedence over the "N", and effectively will translate to
 260         #
 261         #  git rev-list N ^O ^X ^N
 262         #
 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
 266         # the "^N" with:
 267         #
 268         #  git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v N
 269         #
 270         # Then, using the --stdin switch to git rev-list we have effectively
 271         # manufactured
 272         #
 273         #  git rev-list N ^O ^X
 274         #
 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:
 281         #
 282         #  git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git rev-parse $refname)
 283         #
 284         # Get's us to something pretty safe (apart from the small time
 285         # between refname being read, and git rev-parse running - for that,
 286         # I give up)
 287         #
 288         #
 289         # Next problem, consider this:
 290         #   * --- B --- * --- O ($oldrev)
 291         #          \
 292         #           * --- X --- * --- N ($newrev)
 293         #
 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
 298         # there.
 299         #
 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.
 304         #
 305         # Finally, tags: 1 --- 2 --- O --- T --- 3 --- 4 --- N
 306         #
 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.
 312         #
 313         # Luckily, git rev-parse includes just the tool.  Instead of using
 314         # "--all" we use "--branches"; this has the added benefit that
