   3# Copyright (c) 2007 Andy Parkins
   4#
   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#
  48# Notes
  49# -----
  50# All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
  51# "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and
  52# give information for debugging.

  55# ---------------------------- Functions
  56
  57#
  58# Top level email generation function.  This decides what type of update
  59# this is and calls the appropriate body-generation routine after outputting
  60# the common header
  61#
  62# Note this function doesn't actually generate any email output, that is
  63# taken care of by the functions it calls:
  64#  - generate_email_header
  65#  - generate_create_XXXX_email
  66#  - generate_update_XXXX_email
  67#  - generate_delete_XXXX_email
  68#  - generate_email_footer

 243        #   1 --- 2 --- O --- X --- 3 --- 4 --- N
 244        #
 245        # O is $oldrev for $refname
 246        # N is $newrev for $refname
 247        # X is a revision pointed to by some other ref, for which we may
 248        #   assume that an email has already been generated.
 249        # In this case we want to issue an email containing only revisions
 250        # 3, 4, and N.  Given (almost) by
 251        #
 252        #  git rev-list N ^O --not --all
 253        #
 254        # The reason for the "almost", is that the "--not --all" will take
 255        # precedence over the "N", and effectively will translate to
 256        #
 257        #  git rev-list N ^O ^X ^N
 258        #
 259        # So, we need to build up the list more carefully.  git rev-parse
 260        # will generate a list of revs that may be fed into git rev-list.
 261        # We can get it to make the "--not --all" part and then filter out
 262        # the "^N" with:
 263        #
 264        #  git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v N
 265        #
 266        # Then, using the --stdin switch to git rev-list we have effectively
 267        # manufactured
 268        #
 269        #  git rev-list N ^O ^X
 270        #
 271        # This leaves a problem when someone else updates the repository
 272        # while this script is running.  Their new value of the ref we're
 273        # working on would be included in the "--not --all" output; and as
 274        # our $newrev would be an ancestor of that commit, it would exclude
 275        # all of our commits.  What we really want is to exclude the current
 276        # value of $refname from the --not list, rather than N itself.  So:
 277        #
 278        #  git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git rev-parse $refname)
 279        #
 280        # Get's us to something pretty safe (apart from the small time
 281        # between refname being read, and git rev-parse running - for that,
 282        # I give up)
 283        #
 284        #
 285        # Next problem, consider this:
 286        #   * --- B --- * --- O ($oldrev)
 287        #          \
 288        #           * --- X --- * --- N ($newrev)
 289        #
 290        # That is to say, there is no guarantee that oldrev is a strict
 291        # subset of newrev (it would have required a --force, but that's
 292        # allowed).  So, we can't simply say rev-list $oldrev..$newrev.
 293        # Instead we find the common base of the two revs and list from
 294        # there.
 295        #
 296        # As above, we need to take into account the presence of X; if
 297        # another branch is already in the repository and points at some of
 298        # the revisions that we are about to output - we don't want them.
 299        # The solution is as before: git rev-parse output filtered.
 300        #
 301        # Finally, tags: 1 --- 2 --- O --- T --- 3 --- 4 --- N
 302        #
 303        # Tags pushed into the repository generate nice shortlog emails that
 304        # summarise the commits between them and the previous tag.  However,
 305        # those emails don't include the full commit messages that we output
 306        # for a branch update.  Therefore we still want to output revisions
 307        # that have been output on a tag email.
 308        #
 309        # Luckily, git rev-parse includes just the tool.  Instead of using
 310        # "--all" we use "--branches"; this has the added benefit that
 311        # "remotes/" will be ignored as well.
