NAME

   svn-mailer - A feature rich subversion commit notification tool

SYNOPSIS

   svn-mailer --commit -d repos -r rev [-f config]

   svn-mailer --propchange -d repos -r rev -a author -n propname
       [-o action] [-f config]

   svn-mailer --lock -d repos -a author [-f config]

   svn-mailer --unlock -d repos -a author [-f config]

DESCRIPTION

   The  svnmailer  package  is  a tool to post notifications of subversion
   events to various targets in different  ways.   Currently  implemented:
   Mail  via  SMTP  or a sendmail pipe, news via NNTP, XML via XMLRPC to a
   CIA tracker (see http://cia.navi.cx/ for details).

   The  svn-mailer  command  line  script   is   typically   invoked   via
   subversion's hook mechanism, but you can run it manually as well.  This
   is useful  to  resend  missing  messages  or  for  debugging  purposes.
   Remember to start it under the correct user/group id.  Otherwise it may
   have problems to open the repository or the config file.

   The svnmailer can be used in most cases as a  drop-in  replacement  for
   mailer.py   distributed   with   subversion.   There  are  some  subtle
   differences  which  are  dedicated  to   more   behavior   consistency.
   (Hopefully) all of them are stated in the HTML documentation.

   GENERAL OPTIONS
   --version
          show program's version number and exit

   -h, --help
          show a help message and exit

   COMMON PARAMETERS
   --debug
          Run in debug mode (means basically that all messages are sent to
          STDOUT)

   -dREPOSITORY, --repository=REPOSITORY
          The repository directory

   -fCONFIG, --config=CONFIG
          The configuration file

   -ePATH_ENCODING, --path-encoding=PATH_ENCODING
          Specifies the character encoding to be used  for  filenames.  By
          default  the  encoding  is  tried to be determined automatically
          depending on the locale.

   BEHAVIOR OPTIONS
   The behavior options are mutually exclusive, i.e. the last one wins.

   -c, --commit
          This is a regular commit of versioned data  (post-commit  hook).
          This is default.

   -p, --propchange
          This  is a modification of unversioned properties (post-revprop-
          change hook)

   -l, --lock
          (svn 1.2 and later) This is a locking call (post-lock hook). The
          locked file names are read from STDIN.

   -u, --unlock
          (svn 1.2 and later) This is a unlocking call (post-unlock hook).
          The unlocked file names are read from STDIN.

   SUPPLEMENTAL PARAMETERS
   -rREVISION, --revision=REVISION
          The modified/committed revision number

   -aAUTHOR, --author=AUTHOR
          The author of the modification

   -nPROPNAME, --propname=PROPNAME
          The name of the modified property

   -oACTION, --action=ACTION
          (svn 1.2 and later) The property change  action.  If  specified,
          the old property value is read from STDIN.

CONFIGURATION FILES

   If  the  configuration  file is not specified on the command line it is
   searched at default locations. The  first  one  found  is  loaded.  The
   locations  are,  in order: svnmailer.conf in the conf/ directory of the
   given  repository,  svnmailer.conf  in  the  script  directory  itself,
   /etc/svnmailer.conf.

OLD STYLE COMMAND LINE

   Alternatively  you  can  use  the old style compatibility command lines
   (options described above don't apply then):

   svn-mailer commit repos rev [config]

   svn-mailer propchange repos rev author propname [config]

   With svn 1.2 and later:
   svn-mailer propchange2 repos rev author propname action [config]

   svn-mailer lock repos author [config]

   svn-mailer unlock repos author [config]
