[lwip-members] email on commits

Hello,

browsing through Savannah's admin FAQ, here's the part that says how to have
auto-emails
on commits.

My suggestion is to open our own address@hidden mailing list, so
that
people other than lwip-members can track commits as well.

"user" still has to be replaced by the member going to change this.

Below, I have replaced "project" by "lwip" and replaced mailing list
address@hidden to address@hidden

I will not take further steps, as Florian mentioned to commit this change.

Leon.

Getting email from CVS

In any large project, keeping track of changes is difficult. CVS does a
reasonable job of allowing source changes to be controlled and managed, but
does not provide tools to make it easier to work with a changing code base.
The hardest part of working on a dynamic project with many changing modules
is knowing when changes occur, and what those changes are.
Software developers often are heavy email users, spending huge amounts of
time working with their email software. Free software developers are among
the most serious email addicts out there, sorting through hundreds of emails
a day, since this is often the only way to stay in touch with users and
fellow developers.
A project member may add e-mail notification of any commits to the
repository by doing the following: (replace project with the name of the
project and user by the Savannah login name).

cvs -d address@hidden:/cvsroot/lwip co CVSROOT

In CVSROOT/commitinfo

^project /usr/local/bin/commit_prep -T lwip -r

In CVSROOT/loginfo

^project /usr/local/bin/log_accum -T lwip -C -m address@hidden -s
%{sVv}

The email address must exist, it will not be automatically generated.
