Subject: [RFE] ability to map individual usernames to from addresses
I'm wanting to map svn account names to a variety of from addresses, rather than using --from or --userdomain, since some of the committers don't have unix accounts/mailboxes on our system. For example, svnnotify --from-map ~/scm/hooks/svnnotify-from-map ... Then svnnotify-from-map could have: bporter brett@apache.org foo foo@bar.com I believe CVS Spam has a similar feature, though I was never able to get it to work when I tried some time back. It used CVSROOT/users, but I don't think SVN has a comparable feature.

Sorry I missed you on IRC the other day. I was slammed. This sounds like a useful feature to me. It can be done in two ways. The first, if you only have a few addresses like this, is to use a command-line option similar to --to-regex-map, maybe --from-regex-map? The second way is using an external file, per your suggestion, which would make sense if you have a lot of people to manage. Come to think of it, such a file could be useful for --to-regex-map, too. So, are you saying that you will be sending me a patch for this? Thanks, David

Thanks, I agree. I hope to find time - I'll dust off my perl skills and try to make a patch. - Brett David Wheeler via RT wrote: Show quoted text

Please see the new support for filters added in SVN::Notify 2.70. Using filters, you can implement this yourself quite easily. I've even included this very feature in an example in the filter documentation: http://search.cpan.org/dist/SVN-Notify/lib/SVN/Notify/Filter.pm Best, David
