The changes landed with c200167 (nmbug: Add 'clone' and replace
FETCH_HEAD with @{upstream}, 2014-03-09).
The preferred markup language for NEWS seems to be Markdown, which is
parsed by devel/news2wiki.pl into Markdown chunks for rendering by
ikiwiki [1].

If the user has unsorted or alphabetically sorted saved-searches these
should continue to work. If they have some custom lisp sort function
then it will need updating to work with the new saved-sort
format. Document this, and how the updating should be done.
Also roll in fixes for the markdown in the first part of the NEWS
suggested by Tomi: change `just work' to *just work* and removed
periods from the end of subtitle lines.
The important point is that the changed search variable is not forward
compatible (it *is* backwards compatible): that is previous version
of notmuch-emacs will be unusable with a new style
notmuch-saved-search variable.
Roll (one last?) release candidate because of Austin's
LIBNOTMUCH_VERSION changes.
Atomically bump the manually (NEWS, debian/changelog) and
automatically (everywhere else) updated places version is mentioned.

emacs: insert quotable parts in reply as they are displayed in show view
The 0.16 NEWS grew chronologically during development, and as a result
wound up in a particularly odd order. This rearranges it to put the
most user-visible news first. Roughly: new features, modified
behavior, bug fixes, then deprecation, with related items grouped.
This does not modify the text of any of the news.
While looked good on paper, its attempted use caused confusion, complexity,
and potential for information leak when passed through wrapper scripts.
For slimmer code and to lessen demand for maintenance/support the set of
commits which added top level --stderr= option is now reverted.
As discussed in id:871udhcmks.fsf@zancas.localnet, notmuch-vim doesn't
really meet the standards of the CLI, emacs interface, or python
bindings in terms of being well maintained.
The commands are long deprecated, so removal is probably overdue. The
real motivation is to simplify argument handling for notmuch so that
we can migrate to the common argument parsing framework.
Date range search may be implemented as a library change, but it's an
important user-facing change that affects all notmuch usage. Tag name
restrictions aren't as important, but they affect both the CLI
interface and the Emacs interface.
Added the following Emacs Interface NEWS entries:
Catch errors bodypart insertions may throw,
Improved text/calendar content handling and
Disabled coding conversions when reading in
`with-current-notmuch-show-message`.
Thanks to Austin and David for content improvements.
notmuch show --format json now includes Bcc and Reply-To headers of
the message. Mention that in NEWS.
(Heavily modified version of text originally from Michal Nazarewicz.)
0.13.2: `contrib/notmuch-deliver` is in backticks elsewhere in
NEWS file. Commands are generally written in backticks in latest
NEWS entries.
0.13.1: Dropped period at the end of Title
'Fix compilation of ruby bindings',
as all other titles do not end with a period.
The recent change to use json for notmuch-search.el introduced a bug
in the code for keeping position on refresh. The problem is a
comparison between (plist-get result :thread) and a thread-id returned
by notmuch-search-find-thread-id: the latter is prefixed with
"thread:"
We fix this by adding an option to notmuch-search-find-thread-id to
return the bare thread-id. It appears that notmuch-search-refresh-view
is the only caller of notmuch-search that supplies a thread-id so this
change should be safe (but could theoretically break users .emacs
functions).
We've changed the APIs of notmuch_database_open,
notmuch_database_create, and notmuch_database_close.
Amended by db: also bump string in bindings/python/notmuch/globals.py
To make updating the notmuchmail.org wiki 'news' section more
straightforward the content of the NEWS file has now been brought
to almost the same as the *.mdwn files in the wiki page.
The changes are basically insertion of mdwn formatting "commands".
More effort has been put into formatting the newer release entries
(0.12, 0.11 & 0.10) than older. Commit to format 0.13 entries will
be made available separately.
Changed all tabs to 8 spaces (M-x untabify over region of the
whole file).
Now this looks uniformly on all viewers (using fixed-width font)
and the observed difference between this "source" file and markdown
generated html output on browser window is smaller. In markdown to
html conversions tab and 8 spaces indents differently.
Also the "Local variables:" block added to the end of this file
attempts to ensure tabs are always expanded; whether the used editor
is Emacs or Vi.
Some 0.12 NEWS items descriptions were indented with 3 spaces whereas
all other lines are indented with 2 spaces. Brought those
escaped lines back in line with others.
This reverts
dfee0f9 man: remove search.exclude_tags from notmuch-config.1 for 0.12
e83409d NEWS: revert NEWS item for exclude tags for 0.12
e77b031 config: disable addition of exclude tags for 0.12

Here is a News patch for this feature.

Subject: [PATCH] News item for allowing attachment buttons to view as well as save.
Emacs message-mode uses certain text strings to indicate how to attach
files to outgoing mail. If these are present in the text of an email,
and a user is tricked into replying to the message, the user’s files
could be exposed.
Edited-by: Pieter Praet <pieter@praet.org>: Rebased to release branch.
In NEWS file, indentation for item descriptions is generally 2 spaces
but in a few cases there were 3 or 4 (4 caused different markdown
handling) space indentations. Indentation in those lines are brought
to consistent 2-space indentation.
Run notmuch new pre and post hooks, named "pre-new" and "post-new", if
present in the notmuch hooks directory. The hooks will be run before and
after incorporating new messages to the database.
Typical use cases for pre-new and post-new hooks are fetching or delivering
new mail to the maildir, and custom tagging of the mail incorporated to the
database.
Also add command line option --no-hooks to notmuch new to bypass the hooks.

This optimizes the user's tagging query to exclude messages that won't
be affected by the tagging operation, saving computation and IO for
redundant tagging operations.
For example,
notmuch tag +notmuch to:notmuch@notmuchmail.org
will now use the query
( to:notmuch@notmuchmail.org ) and (not tag:"notmuch")
In the past, we've often suggested that people do this exact
transformation by hand for slow tagging operations. This makes that
unnecessary.
Add options --offset=[-]N and --limit=M to notmuch search to determine the
first result and maximum number of results to display.
Option --limit=M limits the maximum number of results to display to M.
Option --offset=[-]N skips the first N results; with the leading '-' skip
until the Nth result from the end.
Note that --offset with a negative N for thread or summary output requires
counting the number of matching threads in advance.

Make note that find_message_by_name currently crashes the python process
if the Database is READ-ONLY. This should be fixed in the underlying
libnotmuch.

Fix some typos, add some notes on python bindings, "improve" the folder searching
description, expand the discussion of crypto changes.

Thanks to Sebastian, Austin, and Uwe, Dmitry for the editing help.
I know I should be writing something witty here to make cworth happy,
but I can't think for any verbose justification of this patch beyond
that submitting a NEWS blurb will make cworth happy too. So let's make
him happy.

"Still needs to be handled correctly" could be misread to suggest that
the bug has not actually been fixed yet. So clarify what is actually
meant here, (that the bug is unlikely but we're still motivated to fix
it).
This doesn't pull in any code, (everything in 0.3.x was originally
cherry-picked from master anyway). But the merge does give us a
correct NEWS file showing which fixes are included in 0.3.1 and which
features have been commited "since" then, (topologically, not
chronologically).
in the future I'll include those with my patches. Hope it's ok to do
this as one single patch for this series.

Generally, the NEWS items will describe changes since the previous
release. But there's not much we can do for that since we've never had
a release before.
