[Buildbot-devel] Git commit email parser?

[Samuli Seppänen]

Hi,

What could be done in a separate process? I just imitated the existing
*MaildirSource classes which all parse the message within buildbot and
return a Change object which triggers the build. Anyways, here's the
first fully functional version of the patch. It was tested on Buildbot
0.7.12 but it seems to apply cleanly against Git's master branch. It has
not seen much testing yet, so consider this as alpha quality code.

If you're interested in merging this functionality into the development
tree, I'm more than happy to fix any issues with the patch, write test
cases and documentation, etc. All other feedback is also welcome, as it
has been a while since I last wrote any Python.
