    Would it be easy to add an option to cap the size of emails to a value specified in the config file?  This is to prevent multi-megabyte emails being sent to a mailing lists.  The standard SVN commit mail scripts have this option, and it prevents mailing list servers from choking.

    Implementation would be to cap the size of the diff before it gets added to the email.

      Steve,
      Yes, I can add the feature. I'm currently working on a "2.0" mejor version and will make sure that gets added.
      Thanks for the feedback - keep it coming!

      It would also be good to have a cap on the length of the subject line.  Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 removes the subject line completely if it is too long.

      The svnmailer script would reduce the subject line to just the affected paths if there were a lot of files.
