I use an RSS feed to do this. This leaves it up to the recipient to
determine how often they want updates.

My post-commit hook puts the relevent information into a small database
(SQLite). Then a small CGI program (written in MFC) gets called by the
RSS client to return the desired commit entries.

It's still rough around the edges, but it is easy to implement.

BTW all of this is running on Windows, but should be easy enough for
someone to do on Xnix.
