If we go back to individual commit mails with diffs, is there anyway to limit how many individual messages get sent out at once and how many lines can be in a diff? Ex. if we merge the gtkbuilder branch at some point, is there anyway to prevent from flooding the list with all those commit mails but to send individual ones for regular 2 or 3 commits in a row?
I'm not sure we would see a flood on a merge, probably only one commit saying 'merged gtkbuilder branch'? The gtkbuilder commits should appear as they are committed, not on merge.
But really, I don't care too much either way :)
And the flooding each time geany.html gets updated is a pain.
This may have been because I had an older version of python/docutils. When I regenerated the html 3 weeks ago with a recent docutils the diff was small.
Personally I don't mind the links and combined emails so I guess I'm -0.5.
I'm +1, assuming we have diff size limiting like we used to with SVN. I find it very useful to look at small changes from my mail reader without having to click and wait for the github diff page to load - this discourages me from bothering.
