Some projects want commit notifications and some do not. Currently it is set up custom for any project that requests it. The normal thing to do would be to submit a request either through an email to [email protected] or to submit a "Support" ticket to the Savannah administration project. https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/administration Either way is fine. The ticket is a more rigorous way of doing things because it isn't closed until done and therefore won't be lost or forgotten. But the email is easier. Personally I prefer the email because it just works better. Easier to discuss the details since it is all just email. But that is for future information. We are already discussing it now. It is likely that I will be the one doing the setup for you. So I might as well start the discussion and setup for you. :-) The information needed is: Project name: www-fr Notification email address? Where will commit notifications go? Mail-Followup-To: email address? Where to direct followup discussion? If I know where to set those two addresses to then I can set up commit notifications for you. The Savannah admin side of things is documented here: http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/Git/ Bob
