Are you sure it's multiple copies, or simply one branch merging into another
(and hence you're seeing the same commit message(s))?

Certainly, I'm not seeing duplications.

A separate list?  No.  They're very useful to me because it allows me to see
what work's going on, and to keep on top of reviewing things, etc.  We've
always done this when FVWM was using CVS.

If you want to bin the emails about that, then you should be able to filter
the subject out:

[fvwm/fvwm] ?:

Since Tiziano brought this up...

I seem to get multiple copies of every commit message.  (And it isn't
because I am multiply subscribed to this list.)

Does everyone see multiple copies?  If so, can someone tell me why
multiple copies of every commit are sent?

Thanks.



commit messages and developers discussion

2016-10-31 Thread Tiziano Zito

Dear all,

as a long time FVWM user I'm lurking on fvwm-workers@fvwm.org since 
forever. First of all, thanks to the few devs who are keeping the 
project up and running: I am grateful for your engagement and I am happy 
to see that development hasn't stalled :-)


Since the move to git and GitHub, which I appreciate a lot as well, push 
notifications get posted by GitHub to fvwm-workers@fvwm.org . While I am 
interested in following developers discussion, I am not so much 
interested in getting the commit messages. This has probably been 
discussed already on this list, but are there any plans to have 
a separate fvwm-comm...@fvw.org list? Or did anyone found an effective 
mail filter to automatically discard push notifications? I thought that 
filtering on "from: nore...@github.com" would do the trick, but not all 
push notifications come from that address.


In case I am the only one annoyed by the push notifications interspersed 
with developers discussion, feel free to ignore my rant ;-)


Thank you again and keep up the good work!
Tiziano
