The todo comment got separated from the status it's related to at
commit 3f32fd8a1c ("Add missing comment for
NOTMUCH_STATUS_READONLY_DATABASE."). Later, commit b65ca8e0ba ("lib:
modify notmuch.h for automatic document generation") moved it, but to
the wrong place. Fix the location.
Do not initialize each field separately. It's more robust to allocate
the config with zero initialization, and only set the non-zero
defaults individually.
Config files are currently read using glib's g_key_file_load_from_file
function which is very inconvenient because it's limited by design to read
only from "regular data files" in a filesystem. Because of this limitation
notmuch can't read configs from pipes, fifos, sockets, stdin, etc. Not even
"notmuch --config=/dev/stdin" works:
Error reading configuration file /dev/stdin: Not a regular file
So replace g_key_file_load_from_file with g_key_file_load_from_data which
gives us much more freedom to read configs from multiple sources.
This also helps the more security sensitive users: If someone has private
information in the config file, it can be encrypted on disk, then decrypted
in RAM and passed through a pipe directly to notmuch without the use of
intermediate plain text files.

Attempt to distinguish between errors indicating misconfiguration or
programmer error, which we consider "permanent", in the sense that
automatic retries are unlikely to be useful, and those indicating
transient error conditions. We consider XAPIAN_EXCEPTION transient
because it covers the important special case of locking failure.
The idea is to get the mail written to disk, even if we can't open the
database (e.g. because some other process has a write lock, and notmuch
is compiled for non-blocking opens).
Running `gdb command < input` is not as reliable way to give input
to the command (some installations of gdb consume it). Use "set args"
gdb command to have input redirected at gdb 'run' time.
There is really no need to have a separate install target for the
desktop file. Just install the desktop file with emacs, with a
configure option to opt out.
In most part, our .rst documents are indented with 8 spaces instead
of tabs. Bring the rest of the lines to the same format.
Also, on one (supposedly empty) line, trailing spaces were removed.
If the --hello parameter is given, display the notmuch hello buffer
instead of the message composition buffer if no message composition
parameters are given.

I noticed when trying to use VERSION (and derived variables) in a
subdirectory that the top level Makefile.local needed to be included
first. But according to c10085c77b it
actually needs to be last. To break this conflict, move the variables
definitions into a new Makefile.global.
If some software other than notmuch new renames or removes files
during the notmuch new scan (specifically after scandir but before
indexing the file), keep going instead of bailing out. Failing to
index the file is just a race condition between notmuch and the other
software; the rename could happen after the notmuch new scan
anyway. It's not fatal, and we'll catch the renamed files on the next
scan.
Add a new exit code for when files vanished, so the caller has a
chance to detect the race and re-run notmuch new to recover.

GnuPG 2.1.16 is now injecting the full issuer fingerprint in its
signatures, which makes them about 32 octets larger when
ascii-armored.
This change in size means that the size of the MIME parts will vary
depending on the version of gpg that the user has installed. at any
rate, the signature part should be non-zero (this is true for
basically any MIME part), so we just test for that instead of an exact
size.
