You can +also write your own Python wrapper for more advanced configurability, +using git_multimail.py as a Python module. + +This script is a simple example of such a post-receive hook. It is +intended to be customized before use; see the comments in the script +to help you get started. + +Using git-multimail as a Python module as done here provides more +flexibility. It has the following advantages: + +* The tool's behavior can be customized using arbitrary Python code, + without having to edit git_multimail.py. + +* Configuration settings can be read from other sources; for example, + user names and email addresses could be read from LDAP or from a + database. Or the settings can even be hardcoded in the importing + Python script, if this is preferred. + +This script is a very basic example of how to use git_multimail.py as +a module. The comments below explain some of the points at which the +script's behavior could be changed or customized. + +""" + +import sys + +# If necessary, add the path to the directory containing +# git_multimail.py to the Python path as follows.
