Description-en: git commit email notification script
git-notifier is a script to be used with git as a post-receive hook.
Once installed, it emails out a summary of all changes each time a user
pushes an update to the repository. Different from other similar
scripts, git-notifier sends exactly one email per change, each of which
includes a complete diff of all modifications as well as the set of
branches from which the new revision can be reached. The script ensures
that each change is mailed out only exactly once by keeping a state
file of already reported revisions. The script integrates nicely with
gitolite.
