Hi,

I have been working on a tool that will send emails when a commit is
made and when new branches are created or removed from under a directory
hierarchy. This tool was originally based on the bzr_hookless_email code
but has changed so much it is almost a complete rewrite. I am thinking
it would make sense to make a new project on launchpad for it as it's
goals are more ambitious than, and different to, the original
bzr_hookless_email project.

Features:

  * Sends emails for commits
  * Sends emails for newly discovered and deleted branches.
  * Can scan multiple directories for changes.
  * Highly configurable.
  * Cheetah templates can be used to define the format of the email
    messages. ie to, from, subject, body
  * Example templates provided for use with Loggerhead web interface.
    The emails contain links to the revision changes and files that
    were added or modified.
  * Easy to use. A developer could easily set this up on his/her
    machine but most likely it would be setup on a server.

My code can be checked out from this branch:
bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Enick-allen/bzr-hookless-email/message-templates

This is the first time I have written something in Python. I would
appreciate any comments on this tool. I have not created a new project
for this yet - do you think that would be a good idea or should I try to
merge this into bzr-hookless-email?

Cheers,

Nick
