hg notify inter-repo mechanics

[John Turner]

Greetings,

I'm seeking some clarity on the mechanics and/or best-practices for  
implementation of hg notify, namely, which side of the execution chain  
should invoke the mail notification, given a local(n) <--> centralized(1)  
workflow.

Seeing as the notify hook in my local mercurial.ini setup invokes email  
notification during pushes/pulls/etc. as opposed to the centralized  
mercurial.ini, then it seems each developer would likewise need to setup  
the same local notify config in order to ensure a consistent notification  
process across the team.  My initial expectation was that the passive repo  
(i.e., the central repo) would invoke the mail notification, and thereby  
obviate the need to define a notify config for each local developer, but  
it appears that hg notify executes from the active repo only.

Much obliged for any insight regarding this particular aspect of hg notify  
mechanics, and whether it's possible to maintain and invoke the notify  
hook centrally when working from the local repo.

Thanks,
John
