Shortened URLs for commit messages

in case this is helpful to anyone.

Oh, here's another one. I use an optional "Discussion:" tag in my
commit messages. This sed script converts a message-id into a proper
URL:

sed '/http/!s;^\(Discussion: *\)\(.*\)$;\1/messages/by-id/%5C2;&

For example:

	-Discussion: 87wp8o506b.fsf@seb.koffice.internal
	+Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/87wp8o506b.fsf@seb.koffice.internal

Yeah!

Oh, here is a fixed version that requires an @ sign, which all message
id's have:

sed '/http/!s;^\(Discussion: *\)\(.*@.*\)$;\1/messages/by-id/%5C2;&

So how do you actually use this?

My commit script is here:

https://momjian.us/main/writings/pgsql/src/pgcommit

It basically runs some checks and then creates a temp file with lines
labeled by their purpose. It edits the temp file, then runs the temp
file through a number of filters, and one of those does the URL
shortening via pgurl at:

https://momjian.us/main/writings/pgsql/src/pgurl

It also changes bare message-ids on the 'Discussion' line to shorted
URLs too. It also removes empty labeled lines, and exits if nothing has
been changed in the editor. It then does the commit (potentially to
multiple branches), and then the push.

The script calls many of other custom scripts but you can get an idea
how it works. I am happy to supply more tools as desired.
