I've been looking for a collection of example post-commit hook scripts
without much luck. If anyone knows of a good one, can you please point
me in the right direction? If I can avoid reinventing some wheels, that
would be great.
In particular, at the moment I'm looking for a post-commit hook that
will email *only* the user who made the previous commit.
Thanks everyone for your suggestions and input. In case it may help
someone in the future, here's a very simple post-commit bash script to
send email to the person who had committed the previous revision:
-------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
REPOS="$1"
REV="$2"
ADDRFILE="${REPOS}/conf/addresses"
# format assumed to be "username n...@someplace.com"
# find the number of the previous revision
PREVREV=`expr $REV - 1`
# find the author of the previous revision
PREVAUTHOR=`/usr/bin/svnlook author $REPOS -r $PREVREV`
# find previous author's email address
PREVADDR=`grep ^"${PREVAUTHOR} " $ADDRFILE | awk '{print $2}'`
# find files changed in current commit
CHANGED=`/usr/bin/svnlook changed $REPOS -r $REV`
# get project name
PROJ=`echo $REPOS | awk -F/ '{print $NF}'`
# mail this info to previous committer
echo "$CHANGED" | /bin/mail -s "new commit to $PROJ repository" $PREVADDR
-----------------------------
