Hi.
I was wondering when you were planning to commiting the re-open log
files on SIGHUP to 3.1
(http://git.dbmail.eu/paul/dbmail/commit/?id=3621ad7566949fc565176a040989eace1c18f295
) -- also is there a way to re-read e.g. logging config from
dbmail.conf
yet on SIGHUP? (would be very useful to temporarily turn log level up
and down again without loosing any connections)
On the master branch both are supported. On SIGHUP the logfile is
re-read, the logging level is adjusted and log files are re-opened. Not
everything is being adjusted like ip addresses. But log-levels and
log-files reopening was low-hanging fruit.
That patch is not going into 3.1 though. I much rather put my efforts
in
finishing up 3.2 - which is done except for real-life testing by some
brave tester. So I guess I will cut 3.2.0 sometime soon, and mark it as
a release candidate.
I'd be willing to give it a test as long as you are - pretty- sure that
there won'T be data corruption -- i can cope with some downtime since
it's only a private server ;)
That said, I know some people in Russia or the Ukraine (sorry if I
don't
remember) are running the master branch in production, and so do I
myself. The master branch is mostly 3.1+ where (+) means:
- several new IMAP capabilities (UIDPLUS WITHIN LOGINDISABLED CONDSTORE
LITERAL+)
- a lot of code cleanup inspired by the static analysis done by the
coverity tool.
With GIT, backporting is not as easy as forward porting. If I do
bug-fixes on 3.1 I can simply use git cherry-pick to integrate them
into
master. But the other way around is not so easy given the amount of
changes already done on master.
Sounds like a pain yes
Anyway is it ok to just mail you the new scripts for contrib/* ?
git format-patch is your friend. Just fork and clone on github, update
the init-script, push your changes, and send me a merge request.
Ok I'll try (the files are replacements anyway but I guess it'd be a
good exercise in using git - so far I only use git commit& push
regularily for my dev overlay haha)
