Summary: '--ignore=filepattern' option

Initial Comment:
This patch adds a new argument to syncmail, '-i'
('--ignore'). It takes a glob-like pattern as argument,
and ignores all files that match the pattern. It
doesn't send diffs for them, and if all files are
ignored, doesn't send mail at all (but the subject is
currently not altered for ignored files.)

 - Multiple -i or --ignore arguments can be given to
ignore multiple patterns
 - The usual *, ?, [seq] and [!seq] patternmagic work
 - '**' matches any number of directories (including 0)
 - All matching is case sensitive
 - All filenames are relative to the CVS *module* root

 - If the pattern contains no '/', the pattern is
matched against a file's basename only (so '*.c' as
pattern matches all files ending in '.c' in all
directories.)

 - If the pattern ends with a '/', the pattern is
matched against dirname only (so 'tmp/' ignores all
*files* in tmp/, but not files in subdirectories of tmp/.

 - Otherwise, the pattern is matched against the whole
path, relative to the CVS *module* root.

 - To match a single file only in the topmost directory
(but not files with the same name everywhere) prepend
the pattern with './'.

The patch includes a _filter_test() function that shows
some examples.

Problems:
  - It's not tested to death. The pattern matching
magic is tested fairly thoroughly, but the modified
script has not seen much use yet.

  - The '**' logic may be confusing, especially when
prepending '**' with something.

  - The subject isn't modified to reflect ignored files
(May be a feature :)

  - There is no 'IGNORED' indicator in the diff output
(Probably a feature :)

  - The string.split(filespec, ",") now occurs in two
places.

Summary: Fix usage description

Initial Comment:
The syntax of syncmail when using syncmail --help is
incorrect. 

If we use ./syncmail [options] <%S> email-addr
[email-addr..], the collect_diff will fail because it
expects the previous and the new version of the file.
Correct usage should read:  ./syncmail [options] %{sVv}
email-addr [email-addr..].

And, don't allow %{sVvt} until support for t  expansion (tags) 
is implemented.

Summary: configuration file use

Initial Comment:
syncmail has grown many command line options, and is
likely to grow more as functionality improves.  Some
potential functionality (such as per-branch
configuration) is expected to be fairly difficult via
the command line.

Using a configuration file would make it much easier to
configure syncmail.

It is most likely that an .ini style configuration file
will be used since a (somewhat) suitable parser already
exists in the Python standard library.

And, umm, while we are wishing..

1) Support for cvs tag expansion from loginfo.
2) The assumption that localhost will be used to connect 
when no explicit MAILHOST is passed in blast_mail didn't 
hold.  I had to force this or I got connect errors.  So, improve 
robustness.
3) No diff option - nice but not always necessary.
4) Improve formatting of email subject from raw material
5) Make/restore a test mode for command line testing.  That 
was hard to do.
6) Allow user to set email debug level on command line.

Summary: Error when mail server is unreachable

Initial Comment:
When the SMTP server is unreacheable, `syncmail'
generates an error message like the one appended below.
 I suggest adding another mail-sending mode that queues
the mail using /usr/sbin/sendmail (instead of
delivering it via SMTP).

The whole connect thing should be in some sort of 
try

finally

handler so exceptions that are likely to happen like this one 
don't just make it puke.

I believe the enhancement to add an MTA option has been 
discussed for cvs-syncmail.py and should be fairly simply to 
implement. 

The Perl version of cvs-syncmail at http://cvs-syncmail-
pl.sourceforge.net/ already has this:

    -m hostname
    --mailhost hostname
        The hostname of an available SMTP server. The default 
is
        the value of the environment variable MAILHOST, or the 
environment
        variable SMTP_SERVER, or 'localhost'.

    --mta command
        Command line to invoke an external mail transfer agent 
(MTA), such as
        sendmail. The program should expect a message with 
SMTP headers and
        an unescaped message body on stdin.

        This option overrides any mailhost settings.


It would by nice if the Python implementation chose the same 
parameter format, if possible.

I had this very same problem.  It happened because I rashly 
asked for tag information in my loginof entry e.g. %{sVvt}.  
This generated, at least on my cvs,  a filespec value that had 
a trailing , since there was no tag information (actually, it did 
that even when there should have been tag information, 
which makes me wonder if the cvs commit message 
thingumee has an issue).  I solved it by adding another 
variable at the referenced line 139 called tag e.g.

file, oldrev, newrev, tag = string.split(filespec,',').

 Problem solved.  Smarter people who know Python would 
know how to trim that bad boy off before it causes this 
choking.  However, it would be WAY DESIRABLE for syncmail 
to just include the commit-to tag entry, if the user wants it, 
since it is a legitimate expansion option in loginfo.

[Cvs-syncmail] using the CVSROOT/users file for from address

[Duane M. <du...@is...>]

I like syncmail, but I'm having a problem I hope maybe has been resolved =
before.  I thought about modifying the script to do this myself, but I'm =
not that proficient in Python, so I thought I would see if what I want =
has already been done or considered on this list.
=20
I need the email sent by syncmail to come from the user's email address =
who is checking in the file.  This is so we can integrate with our JIRA =
issue/bug tracking system.  I have set up the CVSROOT/users file to map =
CVS user names to actual email addresses, but it appears as if syncmail =
is always using "cv...@cv..." (for instance) as the SMTP =
return address.  My MTA keeps rejecting the email because it doesn't =
recognize the "cv...@cv..." as a valid email address.  If I =
can get the return address to show up as val...@ou... =
(again, for example), the MTA will recognize it (and so will our =
issue-tracking system), but I can't seem to force syncmail to do this =
easily.

Any thoughts?

Summary: Using syncmail with %s fails

Initial Comment:
In my loginfo script the following line has been added:

DEFAULT /cvsroot/sitedocs/CVSROOT/cvstools/syncmail 
%s gpa...@us...

The default %{sVv} has not been used because it 
generated too much lines for binary files. But this works 
neither:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/cvsroot/sitedocs/CVSROOT/cvstools/syncmail", 
line 322, in ?

Apparently the code assumes several options should be 
specified.

[Cvs-syncmail] problem finding interpreter

[Pedro A. <ped...@po...>]

I have a problem running syncmail from cvs of 2003-10-16

I checked out this version because version 1.0 was not working so I 
thought I would give a try to the HEAD version.

I don't really understand but the problem is that everytime I try to run 
the script, it complains like this:

[root@server pedro]# /usr/local/bin/syncmail
: bad interpreter: No such file or directoryon

[root@server pedro]# which python
/usr/bin/python

Header of syncmail:
#! /usr/bin/python
...
...

If I run
[root@server pedro]# python /usr/local/bin/syncmail
Complicated notification for CVS checkins.
...
...

Then it runs ok.

Why is this?
I don't know how to run "python /usr/local/bin/syncmail" in loginfo 
file. It doesn't work...

[Cvs-syncmail] confused about file xxx -- ignoring

[xavier <lis...@na...>]

but not commited...

i do cvs ci -m 'n' in the directory.

using debian version 1.2+cvs.2003.07.28-2

Summary: Fix usage description

Initial Comment:
The syntax of syncmail when using syncmail --help is
incorrect. 

If we use ./syncmail [options] <%S> email-addr
[email-addr..], the collect_diff will fail because it
expects the previous and the new version of the file.
Correct usage should read:  ./syncmail [options] %{sVv}
email-addr [email-addr..].

So far, no one has commented on this at all.  Has anyone used it?
Does anyone expect to?

For most projects, with only a few branches and few developers, this
probably isn't very valuable, but I think it's useful when large
numbers of developers are involved and many branches are in the
repository.

Are there missing features that would make this more useful for
others?
