mergeinfo commit mails, possible solution
From #lucene IRC:
gsingers:sarowe and I were talking about the mergeinfo commit overload
[09:43]gsingers:and the asf_mailer.conf file
[09:43]gsingers:In looking at the file
[09:44]gsingers:it appears the one thing we have the ability to do is to turn off the generation of diffs for
[09:44]gsingers:events
[09:44]gsingers:The default setting is:
[09:44]gsingers:generate_diffs = add copy modify propchange
[09:44]gsingers:sarowe and I are proposing to change our settings to just be add/copy/modify
[09:44]gsingers:and try dropping propchange
[09:45]gsingers:I honestly don't know whether it will work or not
[09:45]gsingers:and it will also likely mean we will miss notifications of other propchanges
[09:45]gsingers:We've asked on #asfinfra if there are other options
[09:45]gsingers:and sarowe is looking into the mailer.py script to see if there are other things available
[09:46]gsingers:I guess the question here is, do people want to try turning off propchange?

OK, it is now set. Next time someone does a merge, keep an eye on the commit messages and let me know.

The ASF does not use the vanilla mailer.py script, they are using http://opensource.perlig.de/svnmailer - and this one does fantastic work regarding this! We just need to change the config files of this tool and specify a special subtree config for /lucene project folder.

Yeah, sorry for the implication that we would move. It is definitely something we should decide together.

I didn't know there was consensus that our project would migrate to
Git. I surely hope we would vote on such a decision!

We might also be able to supply a patch to ASF infra to turn it on.
However, I still feel like we are doing something wrong here relative to other projects. Surely other projects are doing merges and have successfully avoided all this noise. (I know, I know, we've discussed this before.) Perhaps an email to community@a.o might help or if we look around at other projects that merge and see what they do. In looking in the mailer conf, some projects turn off generating diffs altogether, but I don't think that is what we want.
FWIW, it was announced at ApacheCon that the ASF will be supporting Read/Write Git, so maybe we just live with it until we can migrate to Git.

RE: mergeinfo commit mails, possible solution
Posted by Steven A Rowe <sa...@syr.edu>.
After looking more closely at the vanilla Subversion version of the mailer.py script, I'm 99% sure that removing propchange from the generate_diffs list will have zero effect, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
Turns out Subversion's mailer.py once had a much larger set of property filtering options, but C. Mike (Pilato) thought the option set was too baroque, so he reverted the entire set - see <http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2944>.
I've asked on #svn about re-instating the "ignore_props" and "ignore_propdiffs" regex-valued options - these would allow us to only ignore svn:mergeinfo diffs while still noting that files' properties have changed, without affecting other properties or their diffs. No responses yet, hopefully tomorrow.

+1 to turning off propchange emails.
A trivial back-port now generates 9 emails!
The number of bits I cause to fly across the planet by hitting the
return key on my lonely computer is insane.
