Re: Email Notifications

Ok, I downloaded the source code and I'm looking in \tools\hook-scripts and
see a file by this name: commit-email.pl.in What's .in at the end, do you
know? Or did I download the wrong version? I also do not see a file named,
post-commit. Do I need to write this file from scratch?

Subversion doesn't have built in support for email notification. Instead,
it need to be have a hook script configured to send email notifications.
See Chapter 5 of the SVN book for more information on hook scripts.

SVN does, however, provide a sample email notification hook script (written
in Perl) that you can use to get started with email notifications. You'll
find this script (called commit-email.pl) in the tool/hook-scripts
directory of the Subversion source.
