Fair enough. I never really bothered to set up any complicated design to get commits, and my emails all get automatically sorted into folders so it doesn’t matter which list it goes to. Although now that you mention it, I could simply subscribe to the GitHub repos and get the notifications for free :)


Yep, you can always watch the projects as well. I just didn't suggest it as people have so far told me they viewed it as overkill when they just wanted commits.

The repos which used to send to Python-checkins no longer do so since their
respective migrations (devguide, peps). I don't know who's responsible for
that, so I figured I'd post here.

 

If people want those back on then that could be arranged. I'm not sure, though, if it still makes sense having emails for every commit from three separate repositories going to the same mailing list.

 

You can follow the commits through an atom feed, e.g https://github.com/python/peps/commits.atom. That means you could use something like IFTTT on your own to send you an email for each commit so you can track only the repositories you care about. That makes me think that it's worth even less for peps since those all have to be posted here anyway and the devguide doesn't affect people's future production deployments.
