It is not terribly hard to have an email sent after each change.  To do 
so, copy post-receive-email to asdf.git/hooks/post-receive, set it 
executable, and set a few config settings.

git config hooks.mailinglist asdf-commits-list at example.com
git config hooks.envelopesender asdf-sender at example.com
git config hooks.emailprefix '[asdf.git]'

This is all detailed by comments in the script.  I couldn't find this 
script in the normal locations, but `locate post-receive-email` finds 
several copies on the cl.net server.

Hope that helps,
Daniel
