--- Begin Message ---Package: cvs-syncmail Version: 2.3-1 Severity: wishlist Hi, The cvs NEWS file says: Changes from 1.12.5 to 1.12.6: * The CVSROOT/*info files want a new command format and the old style strings have been deprecated. Please see the manual for more information on the new format. (1.12.6 was released at about 2004-05, I believe.) . However, syncmail(1) says: one/ $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/syncmail %{sVv} myproject‐one‐[email protected] That'd better be: be sure your CVSROOT/config features UseNewInfoFmtStrings=yes and add to CVSROOT/loginfo: one/ /usr/bin/syncmail %1{sVv} myproject‐one‐[email protected] . Furthermore, there _is_ a syncmail alternative which is able to cope with new-style command formats: maildiff by Behdad Esfahbod, from July 2004. A copy is available from http://gd4.tuwien.ac.at/hci/freedesktop.org/fribidi/CVSROOT/maildiff . I am not quite sure about the license; you might want to check that out before redistributing the script. Anyway, I believe it'd be quite useful if a new-style syncmail-like script got shipped with the cvs-syncmail package. Thanks, Bye, Joost
