I would like to see the code changed in email.
In github first I have to go there (does not work when I'm off) or when
internet is slow.
Then I have to click/expand and I just want to see the three lines that
changes there and there.
It works well for the VM mailing-list. In a glance I can see the changes.
Without any extra tools.

the mail is not made for version control, github is. Why you would
prefer a static way of doing things, from a very dynamic website ?
When you commit to a github repo everyone that watches that repo ,
that is everyone that is either a contributor to that repo or a github
user that has clicked the watch button will be alerted about
everything related to that repo. The alerts appear in the front page
of github.com <http://github.com> when you log in. That includes
commits, pull requests, new branches, issues, bugs, feature requests
you name it. You could link that feed to your email so you get email
alerts but personally I prefer keeping my email seperate from version
controlling stuff.
The advantages of github are too numerous to go in detail here, just
read the github documentation. But to be put short, its easy to link
towards other commits, you can comment commits , you can even comment
specific lines of code (even using markdown ), and edit and commit on
the fly using the website without opening pharo or git pulling to your
local repo. Personally I would prefer to see a lot more pull requests
because they are a very nice way to chain commits together and view
them as one entity since they will concern the same matter. Pull
requests also can be chained to issues and bug reports to mark the
closed or open.
What you list you refer to ? The link
https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-core/commit/8a1f79b44b14f8eafaf6d91a8bab3c28e673114c,
refers to a single commit with a ton of renamed files. You mean how
you can get the list with the diff of each file changed ? thats easy,
click on the commit. If you go to the repo for example here
https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-core/commits/4.0 clicking ....
will expand the commit message but you if click on the commit itself
will send you to the list of the diff log for that commit. Do you mean
something else ?

Hi
I still think that I would like in the squeak mailing-list to see the
diff of every commit by mail.
How can we enable that? Marcus you complain that not enough people are
active but we do not engage people by showing
changes. oh yes they can - by reading git commit.... oh boy if we
believe that people systematically have a look at that then
we are pretty naive.
Now do not tell me that I can browse git commit I know it and this is
not what I need.
I need SYSTEMATIC awareness of a change. I NEED everybody to be
able to
have look before deleting a mail.
It is working in Squeak. I can in my mail look at the changes.
Or of course nobody cares in Pharo about changes and we can get
regression.
Another question: how can I get the list of links to git with the
commit
logs like
https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-core/commit/8a1f79b44b14f8eafaf6d91a8bab3c28e673114c
below?
How can I get the list? so that I can browse (I'm probably one of the
two few interested in fixing bugs after they got introduced).
