the commit mail format is different on the current git setup than the
current svn setup.
for svn there is one email for each commit and the mail subject contains
(for a limited length) the paths for the modified files.
Derick filters the commits mails based on the subject, which is not
possible with the current git mails (please read the mails before arguing
that he can filter it otherwise).
to solve that we came up with the idea to have a mail for each push,
followed by a mail for each commit, it is under development, but isn't done
yet (AFAIR Irker is working on it)
