# will have put this somewhere standard. You should make this script
# executable then link to it in the repository you would like to use it in.
# For example, on debian the hook is stored in
-# /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email:
+# /usr/share/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email:
#
# chmod a+x post-receive-email
# cd /path/to/your/repository.git
-# ln -sf /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email hooks/post-receive
+# ln -sf /usr/share/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email hooks/post-receive
#
# This hook script assumes it is enabled on the central repository of a
# project, with all users pushing only to it and not between each other. It
# possible for the email to be from someone other than the person doing the
# push.
#
+# To help with debugging and use on pre-v1.5.1 git servers, this script will
+# also obey the interface of hooks/update, taking its arguments on the
+# command line. Unfortunately, hooks/update is called once for each ref.
+# To avoid firing one email per ref, this script just prints its output to
+# the screen when used in this mode. The output can then be redirected if
+# wanted.
+#
# Config
# ------
# hooks.mailinglist
# --pretty %s", displaying the commit id, author, date and log
# message. To list full patches separated by a blank line, you
# could set this to "git show -C %s; echo".
+# To list a gitweb/cgit URL *and* a full patch for each change set, use this:
+# "t=%s; printf 'http://.../?id=%%s' \$t; echo;echo; git show -C \$t; echo"
+# Be careful if "..." contains things that will be expanded by shell "eval"
+# or printf.
+# hooks.emailmaxlines
+# The maximum number of lines that should be included in the generated
+# email body. If not specified, there is no limit.
+# Lines beyond the limit are suppressed and counted, and a final
+# line is added indicating the number of suppressed lines.
+# hooks.diffopts
+# Alternate options for the git diff-tree invocation that shows changes.
+# Default is "--stat --summary --find-copies-harder". Add -p to those
+# options to include a unified diff of changes in addition to the usual
+# summary output.

-# - generate_email_header
-# - generate_create_XXXX_email

-# - generate_delete_XXXX_email
-# - generate_email_footer
+# Function to prepare for email generation. This decides what type
+# of update this is and whether an email should even be generated.
