Re: [fossil-users] send mail on checkin?
Thanks, Stephan. I guess I'll have to fiddle with figuring out how to
authenticate a special user for our Sharepoint site's RSS reader (we don't
want to reveal all our changes to the Internet - that would be showing far
too much of our hand ;-)

}
so anyone with "read" (checkout), read-ticket, or read-wiki perms can read
the RSS. i see now that the RSS output is shaped slightly differently
depending on user permissions, though. e.g. if the user has no read-ticket
perms than tickets are excluded from the results.

Thanks for the tip... although I'm curious now what security is applied to the RSS feed. Can anyone view it, or can it be locked down? Which 'user' controls access to it (i assume 'anonymous'?).

Then we took a look at the rss capability of fossil and quickly realized that the rss feed is far superior to triggered emails. Same data, same granularity, much better management of the information, zero setup cost, zero maintenance of scripts etc. If your repo is at http://host.dom/fossils/myfossil then add http://host.dom/fossils/myfossil/timeline.rss to your rss reader (we are using outlook which seems to work fine). > > Thanks! > > -jer > > ___ > fossil-users mailing list > fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users > > ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
[fossil-users] send mail on checkin?
Something my team finds useful at work is a way to send "checkin mail" - an automated email that is fired off by our old SCM (or a companion process) to a specific email list address (which users can sub/unsub from to opt in/out) which describes the change (including the changelist number, the comments, and the files modified). Does fossil have anything like this that can be configured on one of the instances (e.g, in our topology, we have a single fossil "server" which runs Fossil as a service. everyone clones their individual developer repo's from it and syncs to it. this central Fossil instance would be the ideal entity to monitor changes from and to send email as a result).
