The notify hook for hg.opensolaris.org uses the changeset author as the >From address in the email that it sends out. There is a bunch of complexity in that code path, since the changeset author can appear in various formats--in fact, it might not even be a properly-qualified email address.
It's been suggested to me that we instead use the email address that's registered in Auth for the person doing the push. I like that suggestion for a couple reasons. One, it gets rid of a chunk of complexity. Two, it associates the email with the person who did the push, rather than the changeset author, which seems more appropriate to me. Am I missing anything? Are there compelling reasons to continue using the changeset author for the From address? thanks, mike _______________________________________________ tools-discuss mailing list tools-discuss@opensolaris.org
