[PHP-DEV] long CVS commit messages
could someone please modify the commitinfo script to shorten the mail subject in CVS commit mail messages to a more sensible limit? right now we have the name of every affected file in the subject, which is rather disturbing for commits affecting a lot of files like my addition of XML headers to phpdoc XML files yesterday having all 100+ filenames in the subject line does not make to much sense after all IMHO and might even confuse some mailclients? -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

-1 on that. It's easier to search for modified CVS files when the files appears in the subject. Your mail client doesn't need to do a full text/attach of the whohle mails, only the subject. For the last comment: Fix your mail client (I mean, really). However, if php-doc guys wan't to handle it different, it's ok for me but I don't want to loose this information on php-cvs commits. Markus ps: another thing would be: just don't commit 100 files at one ;) On Thu, Nov 15, 2001 at 10:49:19AM +0100, Hartmut Holzgraefe wrote : could someone please modify the commitinfo script to shorten the mail subject in CVS commit mail messages to a more sensible limit? right now we have the name of every affected file in the subject, which is rather disturbing for commits affecting a lot of files like my addition of XML headers to phpdoc XML files yesterday having all 100+ filenames in the subject line does not make to much sense after all IMHO and might even confuse some mailclients? -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
