In particular this fixes a recently encountered bug where the
"--config" argument to "notmuch setup" is silently ignored, which the
unpleasant consequence of overwriting the users config file.
Unfortunately it seems trickier to support --config globally
The non-trivial changes are in notmuch.c; most of the other changes
consists of blindly inserting two lines into every subcommand.
We call it with NULL at one point anyway, so it needs to work with
NULL. Since the only place we use talloc is right before exec, there
is no harm in always using NULL.
The notmuch-search-terms man page states that "tag:<tag>" is equivalent
to "is:<tag>". Completion for "is:<tag>" style searches is now supported
in the Emacs interface.
Amended by David Bremner: combine lexical-let and let into
lexical-let*
Passing in environment variables incompatible with the compiler may
cause other parts of the configure script to fail in hard to
understand ways, so we abort early.
- xargs: use -r flag instead of --no-run-if-empty
- ln: use -I flag/3rd form of ln command instead of -t flag/4th form

Apparently some systems actually have a directory called /nonexist[ae]nt.
It's hard to fathom a good reason for that, but oh well. As long as we
don't create such a directory inside the notmuch source tree, the new
version should be more robust.
notmuch-show can be slow displaying large attachments so hide them by
default. The default maximum size is 10000 bytes/characters but it is
customizable.
Note that notmuch-show-insert-bodypart is also called from the reply
code so we need to be a little careful.
When creating $THREADS data it may end of not having 'None' at all
or the numbers in line output yields a loop.
To avoid loop the value in current array index is set to 'None'
so that if the same item is reached again the loop will end.
Also empty string as next array index will end the loop.
Use the printf -v convention to give output variable as argument
to escape () function so no subshell needs to be executed for
escaping input. The '-v' option to escape () is just syntactic
sugar for better understanding.
Also, backslash is now escaped with another backslash for emacs. This
ie especially important at the end of string.
`echo` is no longer used to write escaped output -- it might interpret
the escapes itself.
When loading configs from Git, the bare branch name (without a
refs/heads/ prefix or similar) matches all branches of that name
(including remote-tracking branches):
.nmbug $ git show-ref config
48f3bbf1d1492e5f3d2f01de6ea79a30d3840f20 refs/heads/config
48f3bbf1d1492e5f3d2f01de6ea79a30d3840f20 refs/remotes/origin/config
4b6dbd9ffd152e7476f5101eff26747f34497cee refs/remotes/wking/config
Instead of relying on the ordering of the matching references, use
--heads to ensure we only match local branches.
You may wonder why _notmuch_message_file_open_ctx has two parameters.
This is because we need sometime to use a ctx which is a
notmuch_message_t. While we could get the database from this, there is
no easy way in C to tell type we are getting.
This is not supposed to change any functionality from an end user
point of view. Note that it will eliminate some output to stderr. The
query debugging output is left as is; it doesn't really fit with the
current primitive logging model. The remaining "bad" fprintf will need
an internal API change.
The compatibility wrapper ensures that clients calling
notmuch_database_open will receive consistent output for now.
The changes to notmuch-{new,search} and test/symbol-test are just to
make the test suite pass.
The use of IGNORE_RESULT is justified by two things. 1) I don't know
what else to do. 2) asprintf guarantees the output string is NULL if
an error occurs, so at least we are not passing garbage back.
This is to limit the copy-pasta involved in running C tests. I decided
to keep things simple and not try to provide an actual C skeleton.
The setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH is to force using the built libnotmuch
rather than any potential system one.
This is arguably testing the same thing twice, but in the brave new
future where we don't use printf anymore, each subcommand will be
responsible for handling the output on it's own.

which is much more accessible. I've also added user-friendly messages
for a number of other config-parsing errors.
The default is actually exact if no checkatleast parameter is
specified. This change makes that explicit, mainly for documentation,
but also to be safe in the unlikely event of a change of default.

Use the new notmuch address command to do completion for addresses in
from: and to:. Use --output=sender for both for efficiency, even
though --output=recipients would be more accurate for to: prefix
completion.
Recognize 'notmuch command --help' at the top level as a special case,
and show help for the command. Note that for simplicity, --help is
only recognized as the first option for the subcommand.
If the top level --help is combined with other options, help
fails. For example:
$ notmuch --version --help
Sorry, --help is not a known command. There's not much I can do to help.
Fix this by adjusting argc and argv appropriately. The help command
ignores argv[0] anyway, so we don't have to set it to "help".
Previously we set up a way for the top level notmuch command to choose
which gpg binary was invoked by libgmime. In this commit we add the
(mostly boilerplate) code to allow the notmuch-config command to read
and write this path, and use it in the appropriate struct.
Update tests for new default variable
GMIME takes a path to gpg, but we hardcode that path. In this commit
we set up argument passing and option storage to allow this path to
specified in the top level notmuch command.
Failing to update this string in globals.py causes failures when the
SONAME changes. In order to hopefully reduce the number of such
errors, automate the process of setting the SONAME in the python
bindings.
Notmuch uses long options exclusively all around. The short options in
notmuch-emacs-mua are intentionally just a compatible subset of
mutt(1). Keep it this way, if only to make documenting the fact easy!
The Notmuch style --client long option remains, of course.
