Its characteristic in our environment that a programmer alters many files at once. This means when using the "watch-notification", that you get a huge amount of emails (one for each altered file) when a programmer commits his module.

It is all up to how you write your notify script!
For example you could have a program that writes the notify *data* to
some kind of file or database and then use a scheduled task to
regularly empty the data into a set of emails to send to the
individuals who subscribe to the notification. This task then can do
the collection of the various data into a small number of emails to
each subscriber (one for each).
