I often have several versions of notmuch compiled and it would be very
helpful to be able to distinguish between them. Git has a very nice
feature to make intermediate numbering automatic and unambiguous so
let's use it here.
For tagged versions, the version is the name of the tag, for
intermediate versions, the unique ID of the commit is appended to the
tag name.
When notmuch is compiled from a release tarball, there is no git
repository and therefore the tarball contains a special file 'version',
which contains the version of release tarball.
To create a new release one has to run 'make release VERSION=X.Y'.
These are the changes made between the notmuch 0.1 release and the
release of Debian version 0.1-1. It's mostly changes to the debian
directory, of course, but does also include some generally useful
Makefile improvements.
We currently don't distribute anything that's not already in git, so
there's no difference between these two targets, (but debhelper wants
to be able to call distclean).
Again, simplifying the interface to the Makefile. Installing these
files doesn't require bash nor zsh to actually be installed, so there's
little harm in just installing them unconditionally.
Instead, simply byte-compile the emacs source files as part of "make"
and install them as part of "make install". The byte compilation is
made conditional on the configure script finding the emacs binary.
That way, "make; make install" will still work for someone that doesn't
have emacs installed, (which was the only reason we had made a separate
"make install-emacs" target in the first place).
With the original quiet function, there's an actual purpose (hiding
excessively long compiler command lines so that warnings and errors
from the compiler can be seen).
But with things like quiet_symlink there's nothing quieter. In fact
"SYMLINK" is longer than "ln -sf". So all this is doing is hiding the
actual command from the user for no real benefit.
The only actual reason we implemented the quiet_* functions was to be
able to neatly right-align the command name and left-align the arguments.
Let's give up on that, and just left-align everything, simplifying the
Makefiles considerably. Now, the only instances of a captialized command
name in the output is if there's some actually shortening of the command
itself.
For other projects I release, there's a bunch of manual effort in
cosntructing the final release-announcement email. That's silly.
So automate this by extracting the appropirate text from NEWS and
by including a canned piece of the content from README.
This is a merge of the few changes I made to release 0.1
retroactively, (after having incremented the version to 0.1.1).

Makefile.local (renamed NOTMUCH_VERSION to VERSION)
We add a magic line to the beginning of each Makefile.local file to
help the editor know that it should use makefile mode for editing the
file, (even though the filename isn't exactly "Makefile").

It was getting quite annoying to see this big block of text on every
little build, (but I didn't want to get rid of it for any new users).
This seems to strike the right balance.
The idea here is to allow a new user of notmuch to be able to run
notmuch immediately after compiling, (without having to install
the shared library first). This also ensures that the test suite
tests the locally compiled library, and not whatever installled
version of the library the dynamic linker happens to find.
The default "make" would be quite quiet, but still conveniently print
the CFLAGS. The explicit "make V=0" was intended to be identical, (only
not printing the message about V=1 but was broken in that it left the
CFLAGS off). Fix this.
We had a fairly ugly violation of modularity with the top-level
Makefile.local isntalling everything, (even when the build commands
for the library were down in lib/Makefile.local).
There's not any special configure logic for determining these variable
values, but if we did add some in the future, then these will now be
in the right place for that.
Additionally, this now makes Makefile.local the single place for the
user to look for manually tweaking a variable assignment, (say, for a
compiler that can't accept a particular warning argument).
With this change, there should rarely be any need for a user to poke
into any Makefile.local file.
Before it was impossible to know whether any particular setting or
rule definition was in Makefile or Makefile.local. So we strip the
Makefile down to little more than the list of sub-directories and
the logic to include all of the sub-directories' Makefile.local
fragments.
Then, all of the real work can happen inside of Makefile.local.
We wamt a simple "make" to call the 'all' target and then print a
message when done, but we don't want "make install" which depends on
that same 'all' target to print the message.
We previously did this with a separate 'all-without-message' target,
which was inelegant because it caused all users of the target to
carefully depend on 'all-without-message' rather than 'all'.
Instead, we now use a single 'all' target but with a Makefile
conditional that examines the MAKECMDGOALS variable to determine
whether to print the message.
Add emacs/Makefile.local and emacs/Makefile. Move emacs targets into
emacs/Makefile.local, but leave the byte compilation rule in the top
level Makefile.
In the case of notmuch-show, "--format=json" also implies
"--entire-thread" as the thread structure is implicit in the emitted
document tree.
As a coincidence to the implementation, multipart message ID numbers are
now incremented with each part printed. This changes the previous
semantics, which were unclear and not necessary related to the actual
ordering of the message parts.
Add an install target that uses desktop-file-install to install the
desktop file in the appropriate location. The location of the install
can be modified by changing the desktop_dir variable.

According to the Debian zsh maintainer Clint Adams, this is the first
time that a package installs its own completer into zsh. Part of the
reason this is not usually done is because zsh does not provide a stable
API.
We agreed to try it, given that notmuch is expected to change quite
a bit initially. If there are problems or the completer goes stable,
we'll move it into the upstream zsh repository.

The only reason I ever call "make V=1" myself, (other than when
debugging the compiler command-line for some reason), is to ensure
whether my CFLAGS, (like "-g -O0" or "-O2"), are actually making it to
the command-line.
But these are hard to find in the V=1 output, and really, we should
just print these even in the quiet case. So do that.
It was problematic to have this in "make install" since it would
unconditionally try to install to /etc, (even if a non-privileged user
was attempting an install to a prefix in the user's home directory,
for example).
This is a new notmuch command that can be used to search for all tags
found in the database. The resulting list is alphabetically sorted.
The primary use-case for this new command is to provide the tag
completion feature in Emacs (and other interfaces).

Getting the count of matching threads or messages is a fairly
expensive operation. Xapian provides a very efficient mechanism that
returns an approximate value, so use that for this new command.
This returns the number of matching messages, not threads, as that is
cheap to compute.

I felt sorry for Carl trying to step through an exception from xapian
and suffering from the SIGALARMs..
We can detect if the user launched notmuch under a debugger by either
checking our cmdline for the presence of the gdb string or querying if
valgrind is controlling our process. For the latter we need to add a
compile time check for the valgrind development library, and so add the
initial support to build Makefile.config from configure.

The rule here was written to assume that if the GZIP environment
variable was set that it would be the gzip binary to execute,
(similar to the CC and CXX variables). But GZIP is actually used
to pass arguments to gzip, so we have to use a different name.
Use the facilities of GNU make to create a magic function that will
on the first invocation print a description of how to enable verbose
compile lines and then print the quiet rule.
