Troubleshooting issues with git-multimail: a FAQ
================================================
How to check that git-multimail is properly set up?
---------------------------------------------------
Since version 1.4.0, git-multimail allows a simple self-checking of
its configuration: run it with the environment variable
``GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP`` set to a non-empty string. You should
get something like this::
$ GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP=true /home/moy/dev/git-multimail/git-multimail/git_multimail.py
Environment values:
administrator : 'the administrator of this repository'
charset : 'utf-8'
emailprefix : '[git-multimail] '
fqdn : 'anie'
projectdesc : 'UNNAMED PROJECT'
pusher : 'moy'
repo_path : '/home/moy/dev/git-multimail'
repo_shortname : 'git-multimail'
Now, checking that git-multimail's standard input is properly set ...
Please type some text and then press Return
foo
You have just entered:
foo
git-multimail seems properly set up.
If you forgot to set an important variable, you may get instead::
$ GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP=true /home/moy/dev/git-multimail/git-multimail/git_multimail.py
No email recipients configured!
Do not set ``$GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP`` other than for testing your
configuration: it would disable the hook completely.
Git is not using the right address in the From/To/Reply-To field
----------------------------------------------------------------
First, make sure that git-multimail actually uses what you think it is
using. A lot happens to your email (especially when posting to a
mailing-list) between the time `git_multimail.py` sends it and the
time it reaches your inbox.
A simple test (to do on a test repository, do not use in production as
it would disable email sending): change your post-receive hook to call
`git_multimail.py` with the `--stdout` option, and try to push to the
repository. You should see something like::
Counting objects: 3, done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 263 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done.

Note: this does not include the sender (Return-Path: header), as it is
not part of the message content but passed to the mailer. Some mailer
show the ``Sender:`` field instead of the ``From:`` field (for
example, Zimbra Webmail shows ``From: <sender-field> on behalf of
<from-field>``).
