Fred was just musing that the syncmail script, is both a historical misnomer, and seems to be used in a lot of projects now. He wondered whether we should rename it and make it more available to the SourceForge community at large. I'd be all for that, and am willing to add it as a Python snippet on SF.
Snippets don't have documentation; syncmail does:
https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=772&group_id=1
A separate project is too much, though, so I'm not sure what to do.
Can't do that, unless you have two recipient lists. I never thought the diff style was worth going to all that extra trouble.
It probably is worth supporting per-use configuration, though; support -c/-u to specify which to use seems reasonable, and --minimal would be nice as well (implemented appropriately for both context & unified diffs).
Never heard of one. I think context diffs still make the most sense for syncmail.
So they should be the default.
