I've now done this. The downside is that there have been a lot of random commit messages, as I tested to get it working. I did this first in my private repo, but there were more problems when I got to the main repo. It should now be working. Everything is configurable, so let me know if something isn't the way you'd like it to be. RichardIt looks like the title is culled: "installer: prepare for a LyX 2" instead of "installer: prepare for a LyX 2.1beta release".
Yes. Using the entire title seemed ill advised. But it'll probably be OK. I'll change this.
Another thing is that we now have completely different scripts for the lyx repo and the features repo, and we can't use the same script for both. In the features repo, we may delete branches, rewrite branches, and most importantly I do not want hundreds of emails if someone updates features/master. The old script could handle all orther "non-fastforward" pushes better.
Yes, all this is true. But having different scripts seems OK, if we want them to behave differently.
The bash script we were using could presumably be made to work differently, but it would have to be re-written substantially. It pipes all its output to "sendmail -t", which means it really can only send one email.
