What would you do with these patchsets? CVSspam is just an email-generator. There are more framework-based CVS tie-ins out there (e.g. the twistedmatrix.com stuff), and also software that already prepares changesets after commits (e.g. cvstrac.org, though I don't know if it gives you access to the changeset file itself). I would consider looking at one of those, before modifying CVSspam. If you really want to do this based around CVSspam, I'd suggest implementing another script to parse the tmp files, and have collect_diffs.rb invoke this just before it invokes cvsspam.rb to send the email. How does that sound? dave -- http://david.holroyd.me.uk/
