+# An example hook script to mail out commit update information. This hook sends emails
+# listing new revisions to the repository introduced by the change being reported. The
+# rule is that (for branch updates) each commit will appear on one email and one email
+# only.
+#
+# This hook is stored in the contrib/hooks directory. Your distribution will have put
+# this somewhere standard. You should make this script executable then link to it in
+# the repository you would like to use it in. For example, on debian the hook is stored
+# in /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email:
+#
+# chmod a+x post-receive-email
+# cd /path/to/your/repository.git
+# ln -sf /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email hooks/post-receive
+#
+# This hook script assumes it is enabled on the central repository of a project, with
+# all users pushing only to it and not between each other. It will still work if you
+# don't operate in that style, but it would become possible for the email to be from
+# someone other than the person doing the push.
+#
+# Config
+# ------
+# hooks.mailinglist
+# This is the list that all pushes will go to; leave it blank to not send
+# emails for every ref update.
+# hooks.announcelist
+# This is the list that all pushes of annotated tags will go to. Leave it
+# blank to default to the mailinglist field. The announce emails lists the
+# short log summary of the changes since the last annotated tag.
+# hook.envelopesender
+# If set then the -f option is passed to sendmail to allow the envelope sender
+# address to be set
+#
+# Notes
+# -----
+# All emails have their subjects prefixed with "[SCM]" to aid filtering.
+# All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
+# "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and
+# give information for debugging.
+#
+
+# ---------------------------- Functions
+
+#
+# Top level email generation function. This decides what type of update
+# this is and calls the appropriate body-generation routine after outputting
+# the common header
+#
+# Note this function doesn't actually generate any email output, that is taken
+# care of by the functions it calls:
+# - generate_email_header
+# - generate_create_XXXX_email
+# - generate_update_XXXX_email
+# - generate_delete_XXXX_email
+# - generate_email_footer

+ # 1 --- 2 --- O --- X --- 3 --- 4 --- N
+ #
+ # O is $oldrev for $refname
+ # N is $newrev for $refname
+ # X is a revision pointed to by some other ref, for which we may
+ # assume that an email has already been generated.
+ # In this case we want to issue an email containing only revisions
+ # 3, 4, and N. Given (almost) by
+ #
+ # git-rev-list N ^O --not --all
+ #
+ # The reason for the "almost", is that the "--not --all" will take
+ # precedence over the "N", and effectively will translate to
+ #
+ # git-rev-list N ^O ^X ^N
+ #
+ # So, we need to build up the list more carefully. git-rev-parse will
+ # generate a list of revs that may be fed into git-rev-list. We can get
+ # it to make the "--not --all" part and then filter out the "^N" with:
+ #
+ # git-rev-parse --not --all | grep -v N
+ #
+ # Then, using the --stdin switch to git-rev-list we have effectively
+ # manufactured
+ #
+ # git-rev-list N ^O ^X
+ #
+ # This leaves a problem when someone else updates the repository
+ # while this script is running. Their new value of the ref we're working
+ # on would be included in the "--not --all" output; and as our $newrev
+ # would be an ancestor of that commit, it would exclude all of our
+ # commits. What we really want is to exclude the current value of
+ # $refname from the --not list, rather than N itself. So:
+ #
+ # git-rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git-rev-parse $refname)
+ #
+ # Get's us to something pretty safe (apart from the small time between
+ # refname being read, and git-rev-parse running - for that, I give up)
+ #
+ #
+ # Next problem, consider this:
+ # * --- B --- * --- O ($oldrev)
+ # \
+ # * --- X --- * --- N ($newrev)
+ #
+ # That is to say, there is no guarantee that oldrev is a strict subset of
+ # newrev (it would have required a --force, but that's allowed). So, we
+ # can't simply say rev-list $oldrev..$newrev. Instead we find the common
+ # base of the two revs and list from there.
+ #
+ # As above, we need to take into account the presence of X; if another
+ # branch is already in the repository and points at some of the revisions
+ # that we are about to output - we don't want them. The solution is as
+ # before: git-rev-parse output filtered.
+ #
+ # Finally, tags:
+ # 1 --- 2 --- O --- T --- 3 --- 4 --- N
+ #
+ # Tags pushed into the repository generate nice shortlog emails that
+ # summarise the commits between them and the previous tag. However,
+ # those emails don't include the full commit messages that we output
+ # for a branch update. Therefore we still want to output revisions
+ # that have been output on a tag email.
+ #
+ # Luckily, git-rev-parse includes just the tool. Instead of using "--all"
+ # we use "--branches"; this has the added benefit that "remotes/" will
+ # be ignored as well.
+
+ # List all of the revisions that were removed by this update, in a fast forward
