Subversion: commit-email on Windows
Posted: Tue Aug 08, 2006 11:09 am
Commit-email.pl, at first glance, seems like a really cool way to keep developers notified about changes and also to keep the repository backed up commit by commit.
Woe to any developer who tries, however, to get it working on a Windows system.
In order to solve this conundrum, I've hacked together a little script called commit-email.php, which does the same thing, only in PHP. It has almost the same functionality as commit-email.pl except for a few non-trivial things which I am going to try to port from Perl.
Is anyone interested in something like this? Did I miss the point by not noticing that there were alternative commit email scripts?
