Are you sure that’s the best idea? I think that redirecting it away from internals will make it useless. Few subscribe to git-pulls, and if people wanted to opt-in to notifications, they could just “Watch” the repo on GitHub themselves. The whole point of mailing the list automatically is to stop pull requests being neglected, as many people don’t mail internals when they make a pull request. By pointing it at internals, it would not distract from normal mail, not drown things out (there aren’t that many requests). It would, however, ensure such pull requests hopefully see more attention. -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/
