Hey, I'm sending this email to raise an issue that has been annoying me for the last few months, but especially in the last couple of weeks.
As it stands the Git ML is cluttered and it's very annoying for me to review commits that are of relevance to me. The problem, is that in the Git ML we send emails for all of the commits in all of the repos in git.e.org. This includes some more niche projects. This means I get hundreds of commits a week that I don't care about, and this number will only grow once more projects are added. To make matters even worse, those projects don't follow the EFL commit guidelines and have authors like "Gerrit <xxxx>" or just merge commits. I could solve it locally, by filtering out the main offenders according to the repository name (we pass it in the header), though I suspect I'm one of many to be annoyed by it (I already know I'm not the only one). I think it's time to tackle that. I came out with two alternatives: 1. Only send commit emails for "core" efl projects. 2. Split the git ML to two MLs, "core" and "extra". By core projects I mean: e, efl (+ loaders), elm and terminology. Maybe also any other project that is developed by more than a few efl developers and follows our guidelines. In addition, I recommend all the projects to follow the E commit guidelines to make the commit history more manageable. This will both lessen this annoyance and improve the commit history of the relevant projects. Please let me know what you think. -- Tom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Go from Idea to Many App Stores Faster with Intel(R) XDK Give your users amazing mobile app experiences with Intel(R) XDK.
