catch Xapian::Error in compact code in lib/database.cc to be consistent
with other code in addition to not making software crash on uncaught
other Xapian error.
Following a suggestion by Austin in id:20130915153642.GY1426@mit.edu
we use remap for the over-riding bindings in pick. This means that if
the user modifies the global keymap these modifications will happen in
the tree-view versions of them too.
[tree-view overrides these to do things like close the message pane
before doing the action, so the functionality is very close to the
original common keymap function.]
remaps are a rather unusual keymap consisting of "first key" 'remap
and then "second-key" the remapped-function. Thus we do the
documentation for it separately.
To support key remapping in emacs help we need to know the base keymap
when looking at the remapping. keep track of this while we recurse
down the sub-keymaps in help.
The actual documentation function notmuch-describe-keymap was getting
rather complicated so split out the code for a single key into its own
function notmuch-describe-key.
If the user (or a mode) overrides a keybinding from the common keymap
in one of the modes then both help lines appear in the help screen
even though only one of them is applicable.
Fix this by checking if we already have that key binding. We do this
by constructing an list of (key . docstring) pairs so it is easy to
check if we have already had that binding. Then the actual print help
routine changes these pairs into strings "key \t docstring"
The routines that construct the help page in notmuch-lib rely on
match-data being preserved across some fairly complicated code. This
is currently valid but will not be when this series is finished. Thus
place everything between the string-match and replace-match inside a
save-match-data.
A standard way to unset a key binding is local-unset-key which is equivalent to
(define-key (current-local-map) key nil)
Currently notmuch-help gives an error and fails if a user has done this.
To fix this we only add a help line if the binding is non-nil.
The functions referred to in the documentation for this variable were
replaced by the unified `notmuch-poll-and-refresh-this-buffer' in
21474f0e. Update the documentation to reflect the new function.
New defines NOTMUCH_MAJOR_VERSION, NOTMUCH_MINOR_VERSION and
NOTMUCH_MICRO_VERSION were added to lib/notmuch.h.
Check that these match the current value defined in ./version.
This fixes races in thread-local and global tagging in notmuch-search
(e.g., "+", "-", "a", "*", etc.). Previously, these would modify tags
of new messages that arrived after the search. Now they only operate
on the messages that were in the threads when the search was
performed. This prevents surprises like archiving messages that
arrived in a thread after the search results were shown.
This eliminates `notmuch-search-find-thread-id-region(-search)'
because these functions strongly encouraged racy usage.
This fixes the two broken tests added by the previous patch.
These tests check that both thread-local and global search tagging
operations are race-free. They are currently known-broken because
they aren't race-free.
These queries will match exactly the set of messages currently in the
thread, even if more messages later arrive. Two queries are provided:
one for matched messages and one for unmatched messages.
This can be used to fix race conditions with tagging threads from
search results. While tagging based on a thread: query can affect
messages that arrived after the search, tagging based on stable
queries affects only the messages the user was shown in the search UI.
Since we want clients to be able to depend on the presence of these
queries, this ushers in schema version 2.
(Unfortunately, it's difficult to first demonstrate this problem with
a known-broken test because modern Linux kernels have argument length
limits in the megabytes, which makes Emacs really slow!)
This adds support for passing a string to write to notmuch's stdin to
`notmuch-call-notmuch-process' and `notmuch-call-notmuch-sexp'. Since
this makes both interfaces a little more complicated, it also unifies
their documentation better.
Previously, this was in notmuch.el, but all of the other notmuch call
wrappers were in notmuch-lib.el. Move `notmuch-call-notmuch-process'
to live with its friends. This happens to fix a missing dependency
from notmuch-tag.el, which required notmuch-lib, but not notmuch.
Previously, the CLI would print a deprecation warning if a client
requested any format version other than the current one. However, if
we add fields that are backwards-compatible, but want clients to be
able to depend on, we need to bump the version, but that doesn't make
the older version deprecated.
Hence, separate out the "minimum active" version and only print a
warning for requests below this version number.
Previously, the show schema and the search schema used different
"thread" non-terminals. While these schemata don't interact, this is
still confusing, so rename search's "thread" to "thread_summary". To
further limit confusion, prefix all top-level search non-terminals now
begin with "search_".
There have been some plans for making build incompatible changes to
the library API. This is inconvenient, but it is much more so without
a way to easily conditional build against multiple versions of
notmuch.
The macro has been lifted from glib.
We want to load notmuch-tree when notmuch is loaded, so include it as
a require in notmuch.el. To avoid circular dependency we need to move
one keybinding from notmuch-tree.el to notmuch.el: it makes sense for
it to be defined there anyway.
Since tree is now loaded by default there is no need to print a
message when it is loaded.
There are some crufty declare-functions and requires in notmuch-tree:
since it requires notmuch.el itself this all works but in preparation
for the move to mainline tidy this up.
notmuch-help is in notmuch.el not notmuch-lib.el and this is
incovenient for the way pick/tree uses it. I think lib makes more
sense anyway so move it there.
The extra path component added by the lib is a magic value that the
caller just has to know. This is demonstrated by the current code,
which indeed has "xapian.old" both sides of the interface. Use the
backup path provided by the lib caller verbatim, without adding
anything to it.
It was looking in completely the wrong place for the backup and the
(test) xapian database. Unfortunately test_begin_subtest hides the
relevant errors.
