[Proposal] commit-docs at lists.ubuntu.com

[Sean Wheller]

To help make people aware of what and when commits are made in SVN I propose a 
mailing list. Everyone interested in seeing commits can subscribe to it. Each 
time that a commit is made, svn will send a message to the commit-docs list.

The message contains a list of the paths that were changed, the log message 
attached to the commit, the author and date of the commit, as well as a GNU 
diff-style display of the changes made to the various versioned files as part 
of the commit.

This can be very easily enabled by using the 'post-commit' hook template found 
in the hooks/ directory of the repository.

Votes, thoughts, comments and musings invited.
