I understand how verifymsg can be used to check the text in a commit message. The problems is that I'd like to have different checks for different branches, and there is no "branch name" variable that I can see to pass into a script called from verifymsg.
So I went to see how scripts such as cvs_acls and activitymail get their branch information. cvs_acls seems to parse each directory's CVS/Entries file on the client, and activitymail seems to get it from the stdin for commitinfo. But I can't pass the %l variable (the name of the file containing the commit message) to anything but verifymsg and editinfo, and I can't pass the same stdin to verifymsg. Any suggestions? ~Matt p.s. I suppose a two step process of checking the message and recording the results for all possible branches somewhere, and then modifying cvs_acls to check for an acceptable message once the branch is known might work. Bit hokey though. Environment: cvs server 1.12.9, older clients and SmartCVS 4.0 _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
