Read https://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.12.12/cvs_18.html#SEC188 Add the line 'UseNewInfoFmtStrings=yes' to CVSROOT/config Use: DEFAULT Mail -s "%p %s" [EMAIL PROTECTED] and you should get something that approximates your old behavior. Without accidentally trying to send e-mail to e-mail addresses you did not expect when the bare %s would otherwise be sent as multiple arguments and only the first would be in the subject line. However, you may wish to consider something like: DEFAULT Mail -s "%p %{sVv}" [EMAIL PROTECTED] or you could write a wrapper script that generates the subject line that you desire and is passed the %p and %{sVv} arguments separately. -- Mark -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFCo9Nq3x41pRYZE/gRAqqLAJ9gjvisomA3Dx4sJNJMTyVavAmnbACgpL7v osF2nAmJX7sxOAgahOP5iCY= =OcfP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
