Subscribers will be mailed commit diffs. + +Some changes are needed to ikiwiki configs to support this: + +* A new `--adminemail` config option has been added, that is used for both + this and for sending user subscription mails, so should be configured on + any wiki that uses either feature. +* `--svnpath` needs to be set to location of your wiki inside its + subversion repository. It defaults to "trunk", which will work for many + layouts. +* A new `--notify` config option should be passed to ikiwiki when it's run + as a svn commit hook, to enable it sending the subscription mails. +* `--svnrepo` is actually supported and used now, so should be set to the + subversion repository directory. + +[[ikiwiki.setup]] has been updated accordingly. + +This is the last major change planned before the first official release of +ikiwiki. The main remaining issue blocking that release is the resolution +of what to do about HTML XSS [[security]] issues. |
