Commit notifications

[Philippe Veber]

I don't receive commit notifications by emails though I'm watching the biocaml/biocaml repo on github. Do you guys know where I can set this up?
Thanks!

If you click your name in the upper right, then click Edit Your Profile, then click Notification Center on the left, there are a few basic settings, but you can't do anything to precise. I don't get emails for new commits either.

Thanks Ashish!
I had also noticed this settings menu, but it is set up adequately already. I thought maybe as an administrator of the repo you could something, but checking on my own repos I see nothing to enable commit notifications. That's really strange, I receive commit notifications from opam-repository all the time!

sup...@github.com is quite responsive. Let us know if you figure it out. Github's notifications have always been erratic for me too.

Very responsive indeed, I already got an answer:

Here is the relevant paragraph on the page:

Good to know: Owners do not receive notifications for the organization's repositories by default. To receive notifications, create an Admin or Push team and add the owners and repositories for which notifications are desired.

I don't think I have the permissions to do that. Could you have a try when you have some time?

Cheers,

You are already on the team "biocaml-dev", which grants Push & Pull access to the biocaml repo. You are not an owner of the biocaml organization however. Are both required? That would be odd.

I don't think so either. I've just sent a message to github support with the information you provided. Let's see then!

Hi all. To resolve Philippe's request, I've created a new biocaml-commits mailing list. Feel free to subscribe if you want to be notified every time there is a push to the main repo.
