<p>"not smart enough" is by design in this case.<br>
Commit mails and IRC messages are sent for any push in the Geany (and G-P as well) repository. This also includes any branches besides <code>master</code>.<br>
In this case, the branch was <code>elextr-patch-4</code> of Lex simple change but this is also true for sub release branches like the current <code>1.34</code> branch.</p>
<p>IMO it is good to have commit mails also for branches besides master.</p>
<p>Apart from that, I completely support what Lex said above about minimizing restrictions for contributions.</p>
