The easy part is setting up commit-email.pl. The time consuming part is
setting up all the rest.

commit-email.pl already handles sending email to different mailing lists
depending upon the paths that have been modified in the commit. Here's
the command I use from my post-commit script:

# Send an email out showing the differences in this commit. Blair sees
# every commit, but the orca-checkins mailing list only gets Orca commits.
"$REPOS/hooks/commit-email.pl" "$REPOS" "$REV" \
  -m '^(branches|tags|trunk)/orca' orca-checkins@orcaware.com \
  -m '.*' blair@orcaware.com &
