Re: [PATCH v4 1/2] git-multimail: an improved replacement for post-receive-email

Michael Haggerty wrote:

Add git-multimail, a tool for generating notification emails for
pushes to a Git repository.  It is largely plug-in compatible with
post-receive-email, and is proposed to eventually replace that script.
The advantages of git-multimail relative to post-receive-email are
described in README.migrate-from-post-receive-email.

Yay!

I wouldn't be surprised if it is possible to improve this in some
way or other, but where as usual "Reviewed-by" means "If I were
maintainer I would commit and push it out and as a non maintainer
I vouch for its suitability",

The patch integrates it into the git tree sanely and further
refinements can safely come on top.  Thanks for your hard work.
