Re: setup commit-email.pl

Hi,

There are some examples on the net, but I didn't find them really useful...

Here is what I have done:

I have a project called "ProjectName", and all commits to this project
shall fire an email to the both developers of the project, user1 and
user2. The following line in the post-commit hook script does the job:

/usr/bin/perl $REPOS/hooks/commit-email.pl "$REPOS" "$REV" -m
"ProjectName.*" --from subversion@myhost.com user1@myhost.com
user2@myhost.com

Common errors:

- the -m regex must be put before any other command line argument
- you must specify the correct location for the perl interpreter
- you must put the full path to the commit-email.pl-script
- I had to specify a from-adress as our firewall didn't accept the default
from-adress (that was hard to figure out)...

Good luck!

Jochen
