postgis-commits e-mail list

[pramsey]

commits list needed

• remember to increase message size limit so big commit mails get through
• remember to add @osgeo.org to allowed senders so that svn hook can send mail into it

Assigning to SAC component, not general.

Still need a post-commit hook for this to email postgis-commits@…

[pramsey]

The changes on the postgis-commits e-mail list side have been made. Set up the hook to start mail to postgis-commits@… flowing.

Is this done?

I see:

/var/www/svn/hookscripts/commit-email.pl "$REPOS" "$REV" --from svn_postgis@… postgis-commits@… &

But postgis-commits@… doesn't appear to exist. Should this be going somewhere else? (Does anyone still care?)

[crschmidt]

I see now that the postgis.refractions.net address exists and has a lot of spam in it, but also mail from before the transition to OSGeo. So:

1. Can someone with access to that list add svn_postgis@… to the allowed list of senders?
2. You probably want to turn off the postgis-commits@postgis as an allowed sender, since the spammers have found it and are abusing it.

I have enabled the post-commit hook to post to the postgis.refractions.net list now.

Thanks Chris, I have added svn_postgis@ and removed the old allowed address.

Reopening as I don't think the @refractions mail is used by anyone anymore. I've asked devs what they think about reviving the list on @osgeo, let's wait for the outcome: ​https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/postgis-devel/2015-October/025327.html

OK Sandro, let us know if you want that list to be created.

This was long time done (to osgeo list)
