[Cdash] cdash upgrade and no longer sending emails

Ok, that does clarify some things and makes more sense.  Thanks.

However, I'm seeing that cdash attempts to send emails while processing the 
Build.xml rather than waiting for the Update.xml.

If my subscription is to get emails for any commits, then I do get the emails.
If my subscription is to get emails only for my commits, then I do not get the 
emails.

In CDash 2.0, I have in do_submit.php:
  // Send the emails if necessary
  if($handler instanceof UpdateHandler ||
     $handler instanceof TestingHandler ||
     $handler instanceof BuildHandler ||
     $handler instanceof ConfigureHandler ||
     $handler instanceof DynamicAnalysisHandler)
    {
    sendemail($handler, $projectid);
    }


In CDash 2.2, I have
  // Send the emails if necessary
  if($handler instanceof UpdateHandler)
    {
    send_update_email($handler, $projectid);
    }
  if($handler instanceof TestingHandler ||
     $handler instanceof BuildHandler ||
     $handler instanceof ConfigureHandler ||
     $handler instanceof DynamicAnalysisHandler)
    {
    sendemail($handler, $projectid);
    }


There is no longer a call to sendemail() when the handler is an UpdateHandler.

In CDash 2.2, send_update_email() only sends emails to site maintainers for 
update errors.

I'm going to try changing it to this to see if I can restore emails to 
committers.
  // Send the emails if necessary
  if($handler instanceof UpdateHandler)
    {
    send_update_email($handler, $projectid);
    }
  if($handler instanceof TestingHandler ||
     $handler instanceof BuildHandler ||
     $handler instanceof UpdateHandler ||
     $handler instanceof ConfigureHandler ||
     $handler instanceof DynamicAnalysisHandler)
    {
    sendemail($handler, $projectid);
    }
