This allows specifying config file as a top level argument to notmuch,
and generally makes it possible to override config file options in
main(), without having to touch the subcommands.
If the config file does not exist, one will be created for the notmuch
main command and setup and help subcommands. Help is special in this
regard; the config is created just to avoid errors about missing
config, but it will not be saved.
This also makes notmuch config the talloc context for subcommands.
We now have a notmuch_config_is_new() function to query whether a
config was created or not. Change the notmuch_config_open() is_new
parameter into boolean create_new to determine whether the function
should create a new config if one doesn't exist. This reduces the
complexity of the API.
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
This synchronization is one of those features that should just happen
automatically. We allow for customization in case someone *really*
wants to turn it off, but we don't need to prompt for this
interactively.
People with special needs can find the configuration file on their
own.
Since the name of the configuration parameter here is:
maildir.synchronize_flags
the convention is that the functions to get and set this parameter
should match it in name. Hence:
notmuch_config_get_maildir_synchronize_flags
etc. (as opposed to notmuch_config_get_maildir_sync).
This adds group [maildir] and key 'synchronize_flags' to the
configuration file. Its value enables (true) or diables (false) the
synchronization between notmuch tags and maildir flags. By default,
the synchronization is disabled.
These were introduced as a side-effect of commit
b9eac48c22 (shame on me for doing
side-effect commits like that!).
For me, at least, compilation is now warning-free.
If the user is explicitly providing EOF, then terminating the program
is the most likely desired thing to do. This also avoids undefined
behavior from continuing with an uninitialized response after ignoring
the return value of getline().
This fixes a small bug in notmuch_setup_command such that it returned
OK and output the setup message footer even if the config file write
step failed.
It's quite possible for someone to read the documentation and run
"notmuch setup" rather than just "notmuch". In that case, we don't
want to be any less welcoming.
This will allow for things like the database path to be specified
without any cheesy NOTMUCH_BASE environment variable. It also will
allow "notmuch reply" to recognize the user's email address when
constructing a reply in order to do the right thing, (that is, to use
the user's address to which mail was sent as From:, and not to reply
to the user's own addresses).
With this change, the "notmuch setup" command is now strictly for
changing the configuration of notmuch. It no longer creates the
database, but instead instructs the user to call "notmuch new" to do
that.
Now that the client sources are alone here in their own directory,
(with all the library sources down inside the lib directory), we can
break the client up into multiple files without mixing the files up.
The hope is that these smaller files will be easier to manage and
maintain.
