However, being able to search for commit subjects in the mail archives is already implemented via cgit filter. An example is here: https://80x24.org/mirrors/git.git/commit/?id=8da56a484800023a545d7a7c022473f5aa9e720f The link at "userdiff: fix some corner cases in dts regex" makes a link to: https://public-inbox.org/git/?x=t&q=%22userdiff:+fix+some+corner+cases+in+dts+regex%22 (side note: not sure if that "x=t" to expand the whole message is good...) That link is generated by examples/cgit-commit-filter.lua in the public-inbox source: https://public-inbox.org/meta/1677253/s/?b=examples/cgit-commit-filter.lua My longer term plan is to be able to use the post-image blob OIDs from cgit to generate a search query for public-inbox such as: https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=dfpost:afc6b5b404+dfpost:072d58b69d+dfpost:4353b8220c+dfpost:333a625c70+dfpost:e187d356f6 Which finds all versions of the userdiff patch posted. But AFAIK there's no easy way to get at blob OIDs from cgit to a Lua filter...
