Hi, Subversion-tools in lenny contains a commit email script, which unfortunately sends broken mails (all the headers are part of the body, and the headers empty).
Bugs #532903 and #508301 are about this issue, which has been fixed for sid+squeeze in late February. wea...@intrepid:~/tmp$ cat ./subversion-1.5.6dfsg/debian/patches/commit-email2 Fix commit-email.pl header formatting - properly omit the envelope 'From ' when not --stdout. From upstream trunk r34134. Bug #508301. --- a/tools/hook-scripts/commit-email.pl.in +++ b/tools/hook-scripts/commit-email.pl.in @@ -557,7 +557,7 @@ my @head; my $formatted_date; - if (defined $stdout) + if ($stdout) { $formatted_date = strftime('%a %b %e %X %Y', localtime()); push(@head, "From $mail_from $formatted_date\n"); This is the same patch I wrote independently when I filed #532903. The maintainer states that this fix "is trivial and obviously correct", and it does what I expect on the system where I applied it. Please consider allowing an update to subversion-tools for the next lenny point release.
