Add a comment showing how to include a web link (i.e. gitweb/cgit) and a patch in the email that is sent for each pushed commit. --- The quoting was tricky enough that it's worth documenting. At first I wanted to put \n\n in the printf, but to do so would have meant using \\\\n\\\\n, and in the end, the pair of "echo" statements seemed better.
FYI, I did this for glibc.git: http://sources.redhat.com/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;a=summary
push-triggered messages have been sent to this list since May 21: http://sourceware.org/ml/glibc-cvs/2009-q2/
