通知
An email server must be configured in Bitbucket Data Center for email notifications to be sent. See Setting up your mail server. Note that if the mail server fails, notifications will be dropped.
Batched email notifications
Notifications are aggregated by user for each pull request and are emailed in a batch. The batch gets sent if things go quiet for a while (default is 10 minutes), or when the oldest notification gets 'stale' (default is 30 minutes), whichever comes first.
By default, email notifications are batched. However:
- You can change your personal account settings (on the Notification settings tab) so that you recieve notifications immediately.
- Pull request notifications and repository notifications have separate settings for notifications to be batched or recieved immediately. E.g., you can opt to receive pull request notifications immediately, but receive repository notifications in a batch.
- A Bitbucket admin can configure the period of inactivity and the staleness timeout period in the config properties file.
- A Bitbucket admin can change the notification mode for the Bitbucket instance to 'immediate' using a system property, but users can still opt in for batched notifications.
Using 'mentions to notify someone
From Bitbucket 2.0, 'mentions' can be used to notify another user about the pull request description or comment you are writing. Bitbucket sends an email to that person – the emails are batched if they have opted for batching in their personal account settings.
To use mentions, simply start typing '@' and then the users display name, username or email address, and choose from the list that Bitbucket offers. You can use quotes for unusual names, for example if it has spaces. Use Control-Shift-P or Command-Shift-P to preview the mention.
