   3# Copyright (c) 2007 Andy Parkins
   4#
   5# An example hook script to mail out commit update information.  This hook sends emails
   6# listing new revisions to the repository introduced by the change being reported.  The
   7# rule is that (for branch updates) each commit will appear on one email and one email
   8# only.
   9#
  10# This hook is stored in the contrib/hooks directory.  Your distribution will have put
  11# this somewhere standard.  You should make this script executable then link to it in
  12# the repository you would like to use it in.  For example, on debian the hook is stored
  13# in /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email:
  14#
  15#  chmod a+x post-receive-email
  16#  cd /path/to/your/repository.git
  17#  ln -sf /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email hooks/post-receive
  18#
  19# This hook script assumes it is enabled on the central repository of a project, with
  20# all users pushing only to it and not between each other.  It will still work if you
  21# don't operate in that style, but it would become possible for the email to be from
  22# someone other than the person doing the push.
  23#
  24# Config
  25# ------
  26# hooks.mailinglist
  27#   This is the list that all pushes will go to; leave it blank to not send
  28#   emails for every ref update.
  29# hooks.announcelist
  30#   This is the list that all pushes of annotated tags will go to.  Leave it
  31#   blank to default to the mailinglist field.  The announce emails lists the
  32#   short log summary of the changes since the last annotated tag.
  33# hook.envelopesender
  34#   If set then the -f option is passed to sendmail to allow the envelope sender
  35#   address to be set
  36#
  37# Notes
  38# -----
  39# All emails have their subjects prefixed with "[SCM]" to aid filtering.
  40# All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
  41# "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and
  42# give information for debugging.

  45# ---------------------------- Functions
  46
  47#
  48# Top level email generation function.  This decides what type of update
  49# this is and calls the appropriate body-generation routine after outputting
  50# the common header
  51#
  52# Note this function doesn't actually generate any email output, that is taken
  53# care of by the functions it calls:
  54#  - generate_email_header
  55#  - generate_create_XXXX_email
  56#  - generate_update_XXXX_email
  57#  - generate_delete_XXXX_email
  58#  - generate_email_footer

 233        # Consider this:
 234        #   1 --- 2 --- O --- X --- 3 --- 4 --- N
 235        #
 236        # O is $oldrev for $refname
 237        # N is $newrev for $refname
 238        # X is a revision pointed to by some other ref, for which we may
 239        #   assume that an email has already been generated.
 240        # In this case we want to issue an email containing only revisions
 241        # 3, 4, and N.  Given (almost) by
 242        #
 243        #  git-rev-list N ^O --not --all
 244        #
 245        # The reason for the "almost", is that the "--not --all" will take
 246        # precedence over the "N", and effectively will translate to
 247        #
 248        #  git-rev-list N ^O ^X ^N
 249        #
 250        # So, we need to build up the list more carefully.  git-rev-parse will
 251        # generate a list of revs that may be fed into git-rev-list.  We can get
 252        # it to make the "--not --all" part and then filter out the "^N" with:
 253        #
 254        #  git-rev-parse --not --all | grep -v N
 255        #
 256        # Then, using the --stdin switch to git-rev-list we have effectively
 257        # manufactured
 258        #
 259        #  git-rev-list N ^O ^X
 260        #
 261        # This leaves a problem when someone else updates the repository
 262        # while this script is running.  Their new value of the ref we're working
 263        # on would be included in the "--not --all" output; and as our $newrev
 264        # would be an ancestor of that commit, it would exclude all of our
 265        # commits.  What we really want is to exclude the current value of
 266        # $refname from the --not list, rather than N itself.  So:
 267        #
 268        #  git-rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git-rev-parse $refname)
 269        #
 270        # Get's us to something pretty safe (apart from the small time between
 271        # refname being read, and git-rev-parse running - for that, I give up)
 272        #
 273        #
 274        # Next problem, consider this:
 275        #   * --- B --- * --- O ($oldrev)
 276        #          \
 277        #           * --- X --- * --- N ($newrev)
 278        #
 279        # That is to say, there is no guarantee that oldrev is a strict subset of
 280        # newrev (it would have required a --force, but that's allowed).  So, we
 281        # can't simply say rev-list $oldrev..$newrev.  Instead we find the common
 282        # base of the two revs and list from there.
 283        #
 284        # As above, we need to take into account the presence of X; if another
 285        # branch is already in the repository and points at some of the revisions
 286        # that we are about to output - we don't want them.  The solution is as
 287        # before: git-rev-parse output filtered.
 288        #
 289        # Finally, tags:
 290        #   1 --- 2 --- O --- T --- 3 --- 4 --- N
 291        #
 292        # Tags pushed into the repository generate nice shortlog emails that
 293        # summarise the commits between them and the previous tag.  However,
 294        # those emails don't include the full commit messages that we output
 295        # for a branch update.  Therefore we still want to output revisions
 296        # that have been output on a tag email.
 297        #
 298        # Luckily, git-rev-parse includes just the tool.  Instead of using "--all"
 299        # we use "--branches"; this has the added benefit that "remotes/" will
 300        # be ignored as well.
