* Comments are always C-style /* */ block comments. They should start
with a capital letter and generally be written in complete
sentences. Public library functions are documented immediately
before their prototype in lib/notmuch.h. Internal functions are
typically documented immediately before their definition.
* Opening parens also cuddle, even if the first argument does not fit
on the same line.
* Ternary operators that span a line should be parenthesized like as
"a ? (\n b ) : c". This is mainly to keep the indentation tools
happy.
* Comments are always C-style /* */ block comments, with a leading *
each line. They should start with a capital letter and generally be
written in complete sentences. Public library functions are

Internal functions are typically documented immediately before their

* Code lines should be less than 80 columns and comments should be
