Default perl script for notifying commits by email should be improved:

Currently the scheme of the content sent by mail is:

Author: {username}
Date: {date}
New Revision: {rev number}

Added:
   {file1}
   {file2}
Removed:
   {file3}
Modified:
   {file4}
Log:
{commit message}

Modified: {file4}
===================================================================
--- {file4} {date} (rev {rev number})
+++ {file4} {date} (rev {rev number})
{diff contents}


List of suggested changes:
- Log message should be shown before the summary of changes (files added,
modified, removed).
- The list of changes should be added, instead of inline, with an attachment, in
order to be able to:
a) Delete attachments in your mail client tool in order to reduce disk space usage.
b) Extract the diff file as a patch that you can commit to other branches if you
want to.

Created an attachment (id=896)
first patch for the first part of the issue (it's interesting to have the log message first, because sometimes the list of added/modified/deleted files is too big and it's difficult to find it)

Question: can I base my next patch on
http://www.akadia.com/services/email_attachments_using_perl.html (using MIME::Lite)?

* commit-email.pl: Deprecated; use mailer.py instead (r31755,r31767)

(I guess I have to update my patch.)
