[Savannah-help-public] Git email notification size limit

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello,

The `guile-commits' mailing list receives commit notifications thanks to
a commit hook installed by Jim Meyering.

When developers push a large number of commits at a time, or a merge,
the generated email can get very large.  Currently, the commit hook
apparently doesn't set any limit, so I end up moderating these messages.

Would it be possible to have the commit hook truncate diffs beyond some
limit (say, 500 KiB) before posting to `guile-commits'?

Thanks,
Ludo'.
