To describe the script and config file format, so folks don't have to
dig through NEWS or the script's source to get that information.
The Makefile and conf.py are excerpted from the main doc/ directory
with minor simplifications and adjustments. The devel/nmbug/ scripts
are largely independent of notmuch, and separating the docs here
allows packagers to easily build the docs and install the scripts in a
separate package, without complicating notmuch's core build/install
process.
status-config.json wasn't obviously associated with the old
nmubg-status, now notmuch-report. The new name is
${CONFIGURED_SCRIPT}.json, so the association should be clear.
This script generates reports based on notmuch queries, and doesn't
really have anything to do with nmbug, except for sharing the NMBGIT
environment variable.
For example:
"query": ["tag:a", "tag:b or tag:c"]
is now converted to:
( tag:a ) and ( tag:b or tag:c )
instead of the old:
tag:a and tag:b or tag:c
This helps us avoid confusion due to Xapian's higher-precedence AND
[1], where the old query would be interpreted as:
( tag:a and tag:b ) or tag:c

Current documentation and comments in the code do not correspond to
the actual code and tests in the test suite ("Un-munging Reply-To" in
T230-reply-to-sender.sh). Fix it.
We only need a long string, not a single long term to trigger batch
mode. The giant term triggers a bug/incompatibility in Xapian 1.3.4
that throws an exception because it is longer than the Xapian term size
limit.
Some compilers (older than gcc 4.5 and clang 2.9) do support
__attribute__ ((deprecated)) but not
__attribute__ ((deprecated("message"))).
Check if clang version is at least 3.0, or gcc version
is at least 4.5 to define NOTMUCH_DEPRECATED as the
latter variant above. Otherwise define NOTMUCH_DEPRECATED
as the former variant above.
For a bit simpler implementation clang 2.9 is not included
to use the newer variant. It is just one release, and the
older one works fine. Clang 3.0 was released around 2011-11
and gcc 5.1 2015-04-22 (therefore newer macro for gcc 4.5+)
Move the brief help text at the bottom of the hello screen to the
notmuch-hello-mode help, and promote '?' as the universal help key
across Notmuch. This unclutters the hello screen, and allows for a
more verbose description in the mode help. Hopefully, this change is
useful for both experienced and new users alike.
While at it, improve the links to Notmuch and hello screen
customization.
A while ago test script names were changed to format
Tddd-basename.sh. Update README to reflect that.
While at it, included some small requirements updates.
No-one seemed opposed to C99 style loop variable declarations. The
requirement to declare variables at the top of blocks is maybe a little
more contested, but I believe it reflects the status quo.
Add a customizable function specifying which parts get a header when
replying, and give some sensible possiblities. These are,
1) all parts except multipart/*. (Subparts of a multipart part do
receive a header button.)
2) only included text/* parts.
3) Exactly as in the show buffer.
4) None at all. This means the reply contains a mish-mash of all the
original message's parts.
In the test suite we set the choice to option 4 to match the
previous behaviour.
Use the message display code to generate message text to cite in
replies.
For now we set insert-headers-p function to
notmuch-show-reply-insert-header-p-never so that, as before, we don't
insert part buttons.
With that choice of insert-headers-p function there is only one
failing test: this test has a text part (an email message) listed as
application/octet-stream. Notmuch show displays this part, but the
reply code omitted it as it had type application/octet-stream. The new
code correctly includes it. Thus update the expected output to match.
This allows callers of notmuch-show-insert-bodypart to use a `let'
binding to override the default function for specifying when part
headers should be inserted.
We also add an option to never show part buttons which will be used by
the test suites for the reply tests.
If the basic query passed to `notmuch-show' generates no results, ring
the bell and inform the user that no messages matched the query rather
than displaying an empty buffer and showing an obscure error.
Similarly when refreshing a `notmuch-show' buffer and no messages match.
Change the key binding for filter (or "limit") in search-mode. This
gives consistency with the new filter in show-mode, and frees 'f' for
forward-thread in the future.
Checking the existence of timegm() function and setting
configure internal variable ${have_timegm} was done, but
actually defining HAVE_TIMEGM in build was not done --
meaning that compat timegm() was always part of final
notmuch binaries.
The notmuch python bindings document that database.remove_message
should raise an exception when the message removal fails, but they
don't actually do it.
It's not needed for the actual build, but it is needed to run the
SMIME tests; <!nocheck> means it can be omitted if the tests are not
going to be run.
notmuch-show --verify will now also process S/MIME multiparts if
encountered. Requires gmime-2.6 and gpgsm.
Based on work by Jameson Graef Rollins <jrollins@finestructure.net>.
The test is pretty much cut and paste from the PGP/MIME version, with
obvious updates taken from notmuch output. This also requires setting
up gpgsm infrastucture.
Test the ability of notmuch-mua-mail to send S/MIME signed (and
encrypted) messages; this really relies on existing functionality in
message-mode.
The generated keys and messages will later be useful for testing the
notmuch CLI.
devel/try-emacs-mua provides an easy way to try and experiment
with the notmuch emacs client distributed in emacs subdirectory of
the notmuch source tree.
try-emacs-mua starts a new emacs process and if initial checks pass
*scratch* buffer is filled with information of how to begin.
Normal emacs command line arguments can be used, like -q or -Q.
These arguments are appended verbatim to the starting emacs process.
If the emacs version in use is smaller than 24.4, special care is taken
to ensure that notmuch*.elc files older than corresponding .el files
are not loaded. Since emacs 24.4, setting `load-prefer-newer' variable
takes care of this.
These were broken by b70386a4 (Move the generated date from the top of
the page to the footer, 2014-05-31), which moved 'Generated ...' to
the footer with the opening tag, but didn't replace the blurb opening
tag or add a closing tag after 'Generated ...'.
We've been leading off with h2s since 3e5fb88f (contrib/nmbug: add
nmbug-status script, 2012-07-07), but the semantically-correct headers
are:
<h1>{title}</h1>
...
<h2>Views</h2>
...
<h3>View 1</h3>
...
<h3>View 2</h3>
...
We can always add additional CSS if the default h1 formatting is too
intense.
Drop unused imports, and avoid warning about unused imports when we
import something on behalf of another module.

As pointed out by David Bremner, Elisp manual says "A common pitfall
is to use a quoted constant list as a non-last argument to ‘nconc’."
Since this was the case in recently added code, we fix it here.
