When adding the description of the propagation of NOTMUCH_CONFIG, I
missed that there was already a section on external commands, with a
different title.
We want the reply used to match that shown e.g. in the emacs
interface. As a first step provide that functionality on the command
line.
Schema does not need updating as the duplicate key was already
present (with a constant value of 1).
Add command line argument --duplicate, analogous with that already
supported for notmuch-search.
Use of a seperate function for _get_filename is mainly a form of
documentation at this point.
md5sum is of course a weak hash, but it is good enough for
this (non-adversarial) test suite use.
Answering a user question, I had to dig for this variable, but I think
it is a reasonably common customization wish, particularly for users
with custom count-functions.
This mainly affects the html output (although users generating epub or
pdf would also notice a change). The goal is twofold: make the TOC a
bit friendler and easier to navigate by introducing some hierarchy,
and allow links for nmbug and notmuch-setup.
Commit 306b7028d added the nmconfig role / directive. Unfortunately
the default of using the directive name in texinfo output is pretty
ugly, so attempt to make it more human readable by passing `objname`
to add_object_type invocation.
This parameter was originally introduced to hide large attachements
that happened to be text/plain. From a performance point of view,
there is no reason not to also hide large message bodies.
This leverages the machinery already there to insert buttons for
attachments.
A potential use-case is browsing the top layers of the tree to decide
which of the lower subtrees to read.
The original nmbug format (now called version 0) creates 1
subdirectory of 'tags/' per message. This causes problems for more
than (roughly) 100k messages.
Version 1 introduces 2 layers of hashed directories. This scheme was
chose to balance the number of subdirectories with the number of extra
directories (and git objects) created via hashing.
This should be upward compatible in the sense that old repositories
will continue to work with the updated notmuch-git.
Previously only man page aliases were being added as symlinks. The
addition to man_pages in conf.py automatically propagates to the list
of generated info pages.
Installation of the new pages is handled by existing recipes.
Commits or checkouts that modify a large fraction of the messages in
the database should be relatively rare (and in some automated process,
probably non-existent). For initial setup, where such operations are
expected, the user can pass --force.
This is probably more convenient than always passing a command line
argument.
Use notmuch-config for consistency with other notmuch CLI tools.
Now that there is something relevant in the config files, test the
--config option.
The previous defaults were not suitable for personal (i.e. not
bugtracking for notmuch development) use.
Provide two ways for the user to select nmbug compatible defaults;
command line argument and checking the name of the script.
This variable is important for people who want to change the default
behaviour when displaying multipart/alternative messages. Previously
it was undocumented. Add a defcustom to help users and copy some
documentation from the wiki. The usual machinery of re-using
docstrings is a bit tricky to use here because it mangles the example
lisp code, and the link to the info node should not be in e.g. the
html page.
Add a simple test to make sure the switch from defvar to defcustom did
not break something obvious.
Since Xapian does not preserve quotes when passing the subquery to a
field processor, we have to make a guess as to what the user
intended. Here the added assumption is that a string surrounded by
parens is not intended to be a phrase.
This is partially redudant given some existing cross references, but
it is useful to have all of the config keys listed in one place, to
help keep track of them if nothing else.
Originally (I think) these were in the order generated by notmuch
setup. As the number of options grows, and several are not in the
initial setup generated file, the original order becomes less useful
for users. This commit alphabetizes the keys to help users
search. There is only one content change, an added cross-reference
from user.other_email to user.primary_email.
Customizable names for buffers presenting search results, via two
custom variables (notmuch-search-buffer-name-format and
notmuch-saved-search-buffer-name-format), defaulting to values
currently used for plain searches and including too tree and
unthreaded search buffers.
Amended by db: spelling fix.
New notmuch-show-header-line customizable boolean to allow inhibiting
a header line in notmuch-show-mode buffers (for instance, because one
prefers to just include Subject in notmuch-message-headers).
