No diffs shown in commit email anymore

[strk]

Since the introduction of symbolic refs (master == main). I think the culprit is in the show_new_revisions function of the /osgeo/git/hookscripts/post-receive-email script, which tries to find which revisions are not accessible in other refs (while not skipping the symbolic refs)

It's in this snippet:

        other_branches=$(git for-each-ref --format='%(refname)' refs/heads/ |
            grep -F -v $refname)
        git rev-parse --not $other_branches |
        if [ -z "$custom_showrev" ]
        then
                git rev-list --pretty --stdin $revspec
        else
                git rev-list --stdin $revspec |
                while read onerev
                do
                        eval $(printf "$custom_showrev" $onerev)
                done
        fi

This could be fixed once for all in the osgeo git script repository for all users.

Upstream script should be fixed now. Will leave this open until I see a proof of it working

I spoke too early. Things are all good if developers push to the "main" branch, but if they push to the "master" branch then the commit email won't contain the changes: ​https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/postgis-tickets/2021-July/023872.html

Please please please developers use the main branch
