Dear admins of repo.or.cz,
We use your repository to develop our small graphic library, frequently pushing large refactoring commits, many small commits at once or bigger chunks of new code. Getting announces of other peoples' commits is a very useful feature, but the full patch format is inconvenient for at least two reasons: * It is very hard to read the commit comment of other than the first commit in the message * The patch body is quite frequently too large and/or of little interest or information itself
I think it would be an improvement to your great service to (have an option to) send the commit messages instead of the full patch. Anyone interested in the actual change can see it the repo within the context. Would you please consider making that change?
An inspiration for additional luxury (not requesting those): It might make sense to send the patch if very small (<20 lines or so), but I am not sure how hard/useful would that be. Including a link directly to the commit page or the project commit log page on gitweb might be nice for those who would like to see the full patch without fetching the repo.
Best regards, Tomas
