1 Release 1.3.1 (bugfix-only release)
2 ===================================
4 * Generate links to commits in combined emails (it was done only for
5 commit emails in 1.3.0).
7 * Fix broken links on PyPi.
12 * New options multimailhook.htmlInIntro and multimailhook.htmlInFooter
13 now allow using HTML in the introduction and footer of emails (e.g.
14 for a more pleasant formatting or to insert a link to the commit on
17 * A new option multimailhook.commitBrowseURL gives a simpler (and less
18 flexible) way to add a link to a web interface for commit emails
19 than multimailhook.htmlInIntro and multimailhook.htmlInFooter.
21 * A new public function config.add_config_parameters was added to
22 allow custom hooks to set specific Git configuration variables
23 without modifying the configuration files. See an example in
26 * Error handling for SMTP has been improved (we used to print Python
27 backtraces for legitimate errors).
29 * The SMTP mailer can now check TLS certificates when the newly added
30 configuration variable multimailhook.smtpCACerts.
32 * Python 3 portability has been improved.
34 * The documentation's formatting has been improved.
36 * The testsuite has been improved (we now use pyflakes to check for
39 This version has been tested with Python 2.4 and 2.6 to 3.5, and Git
40 v1.7.10-406-gdc801e7, 2.1.4 and 2.8.1.339.g3ad15fd.
42 No change since 1.3 RC1.
47 * It is now possible to exclude some refs (e.g. exclude some branches
48 or tags). See refFilterDoSendRegex, refFilterDontSendRegex,
49 refFilterInclusionRegex and refFilterExclusionRegex.
51 * New commitEmailFormat option which can be set to "html" to generate
52 simple colorized diffs using HTML for the commit emails.
54 * git-multimail can now be ran as a Gerrit ref-updated hook, or from
55 Atlassian BitBucket Server (formerly known as Atlassian Stash).
57 * The From: field is now more customizeable. It can be set
58 independently for refchange emails and commit emails (see
59 fromCommit, fromRefChange). The special values pusher and author can
60 be used in these configuration variable.
62 * A new command-line option, --version, was added. The version is also
63 available in the X-Git-Multimail-Version header of sent emails.
65 * Set X-Git-NotificationType header to differentiate the various types
66 of notifications. Current values are: diff, ref_changed_plus_diff,
69 * Preliminary support for Python 3. The testsuite passes with Python 3,
70 but it has not received as much testing as the Python 2 version yet.
72 * Several encoding-related fixes. UTF-8 characters work in more
73 situations (but non-ascii characters in email address are still not
76 * The testsuite and its documentation has been greatly improved.
78 Plus all the bugfixes from version 1.1.1.
80 This version has been tested with Python 2.4 and 2.6 to 3.5, and Git
81 v1.7.10-406-gdc801e7, git-1.8.2.3 and 2.6.0. Git versions prior to
82 v1.7.10-406-gdc801e7 probably work, but cannot run the testsuite
85 Release 1.1.1 (bugfix-only release)
86 ===================================
88 * The SMTP mailer was not working with Python 2.4.
93 * When a single commit is pushed, omit the reference changed email.
94 Set multimailhook.combineWhenSingleCommit to false to disable this
97 * In gitolite environments, the pusher's email address can be used as
98 the From address by creating a specially formatted comment block in
99 gitolite.conf (see multimailhook.from in README).
101 * Support for SMTP authentication and SSL/TLS encryption was added,
102 see smtpUser, smtpPass, smtpEncryption in README.
104 * A new option scanCommitForCc was added to allow git-multimail to
105 search the commit message for 'Cc: ...' lines, and add the
106 corresponding emails in Cc.
108 * If $USER is not set, use the variable $USERNAME. This is needed on
109 Windows platform to recognize the pusher.
111 * The emailPrefix variable can now be set to an empty string to remove
114 * A short tutorial was added in doc/gitolite.rst to set up
115 git-multimail with gitolite.
117 * The post-receive file was renamed to post-receive.example. It has
118 always been an example (the standard way to call git-multimail is to
119 call git_multimail.py), but it was unclear to many users.
121 * A new refchangeShowGraph option was added to make it possible to
122 include both a graph and a log in the summary emails. The options
123 to control the graph formatting can be set via the new graphOpts
126 * New option --force-send was added to disable new commit detection
127 for update hook. One use-case is to run git_multimail.py after
128 running "git fetch" to send emails about commits that have just been
129 fetched (the detection of new commits was unreliable in this mode).
131 * The testing infrastructure was considerably improved (continuous
132 integration with travis-ci, automatic check of PEP8 and RST syntax,
133 many improvements to the test scripts).
135 This version has been tested with Python 2.4 to 2.7, and Git 1.7.1 to
141 * Fix encoding of non-ASCII email addresses in email headers.
143 * Fix backwards-compatibility bugs for older Python 2.x versions.
145 * Fix a backwards-compatibility bug for Git 1.7.1.
147 * Add an option commitDiffOpts to customize logs for revisions.
149 * Pass "-oi" to sendmail by default to prevent premature termination
150 on a line containing only ".".
152 * Stagger email "Date:" values in an attempt to help mail clients
153 thread the emails in the right order.
155 * If a mailing list setting is missing, just skip sending the
156 corresponding email (with a warning) instead of failing.
158 * Add a X-Git-Host header that can be used for email filtering.
160 * Allow the sender's fully-qualified domain name to be configured.
162 * Minor documentation improvements.
164 * Add this CHANGES file.
