Several of our projects like to have
the category's default 'responsible' be a general name like 'such-and-such-project-lead',
then if the lead also wears a developer's hat, the "real" person
may be assigned the PR for development - it shows quickly which PRs are
actually in the hands of developers and which ones are in the lead's lap.
I have one project that would like to have that general name map to two
e-mail addresses, so I tried it - in the 'responsible' file, I defined
some-project-lead:Some Project Lead:address@hidden,address@hidden
And it looks like it works, except that
it put the two addresses twice in the To: field of the e-mail:
To: address@hidden,address@hidden,address@hidden,address@hidden
Any thoughts?
My other workaround would be to just
put one address in the 'responsible' file, then in the 'categories' file,
for each of the categories, list that name and add the other address in
the 'notify' list. That wouldn't be the end of the world, either, but if
the 'responsible' name can map to two addresses, that's really how the
project wants it to look, and then any updates can be made in one place
as the lead responsibilties get reassigned over time. I don't know why
it's putting the addresses twice in the e-mails, though.
