The remaining problem in this test is fixed upstream in Emacs
28. While most people are using earlier versions of emacs, the test
still provides some documentation of a known bug.
The main idea is to replace the hack of copying version.txt into the
bindings source with a generated _notmuch_config.py file.
This will mean that the bindings only build after configuring and
building notmuch itself. Given those constraints, "pip install ."
should work.
Although the rebuild does not take long, it is a bit noisy, so assume
if it succeeds once, it doesn't need to re-invoke setup.py until the
shared library is rebuilt. This is a partial fix for [1].

The directory is (neccesarily) not updated by the build, so it keeps
trying to build. The proposed fix is to use the name of the dynamic
library containing the extension. This is a partial fix for the
rebuilding reported at [1].

Apparently this messes up various third party completion
frameworks. This change does mean that users will have to hit space
after completing a tag change in order to enter another change.
As a bonus, remove the call to #'delete, since
completing-read-multiple already promises to remove empty strings.
There is a certain amount of boilerplate to pass the call on the
original function, so abstract it out as a C preprocessor macro, plus
some extra includes in notmuch-test.h
Unlike the previous g_key_file_get_value, this version processes
escape codes for whitespace and \. The remaining two broken tests from
the last commit are because "notmuch config get" treats every value as
a list, and thus the previously introduces stripping of leading
whitespace applies.
glib generates the following escape characters with their usual
meanings: \n, \t, \r, and \\, along with \s for _leading_
spaces. Currently notmuch fails to unescape these on reading the
config files. These tests demonstrate this bug; the one new test that
passes is because apparently glib only escapes tabs at the beginning
of a key.
In [1] Ciprian observed that it was easy for users to mistakenly
introduce leading and trailing space to new.tags when editing a
notmuch config file. This commit strips spaces on either side of the
';' delimiter when splitting.
In principle it would be possible to support tags (or other config
values) with leading or trailing spaces by processing '\s' escapes in
the input string. Currently such processing is not done.

In message id:YT3ueuZHKW931NW3@localhost, Fabio Natali isolated a
visual glitch caused by running notmuch-search-hook too early. This
change moves the running of that hook to
notmuch-search-process-filter, which ensures there is some output in
the buffer before running the hook. Since n-s-p-f can be called many
times for a given buffer, add a buffer local flag to make sure it is
only run once per buffer.
Since release 0.32, libnotmuch provides searching for database and
configuration paths. This commit changes the python module notmuch2 to
use those facilities.
This fixes the bug reported in [1], along with a couple of the
deprecation warnings in the python bindings.
Database.default_path is deprecated, since it no longer faithfully
reflects what libnotmuch is doing, and it is also no longer used in
the bindings themselves.
This commit choose the default of config=CONFIG.EMPTY (equivalent to
passing "" to notmuch_database_open_with_config). This makes the
change upward compatible API-wise (at least as far as the test suite
verifies), but changing the default to CONFIG.SEARCH would probably be
more convenient for bindings users.

If the user passed a path, and we opened it, then we consider that
definitive definition of "database.path". This makes libnotmuch
respond more gracefully to certain erroneous combinations of
NOTMUCH_CONFIG settings and config file contents.
This is arguably user error: having configuration file with bad
settings in it (and/or having a bad NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment
variable). On the other hand returning a different path than was
actually opened is definitely a bug.
The <backtab> binding has always been there, but the docs were
apparently mistakenly changed to say <backspace> [1]
Revert to <backtab> in the documentation.
The commit also drops the C-<tab> binding, since it seems redundant
and it interferes with tab-bar-mode.
[1]: 703dec7754.
Previously the python-cffi bindings either failed to build, or built
for the wrong module by using the installed module.
The fix requires correction the module path, building the bindings
before docs, and helping python find the built libnotmuch.

It is confusing to use two different names (sexp vs sexpr) when
compared with the command line option --query=sexp and (furthermore)
singular vs plural when compared with the man page title.
The missing docstring causes a blank in the notmuch-help display
[1]. Since the function is a simple wrapper for notmuch-tree, it seems
fair to forward the reader there for more detailed information.

This is a bit different than n_d_{open,create}_with_config, since
there are several non-zero status codes where we do want to return a
non-NULL database structure.
This code previously relied on _finish_open to free the notmuch struct
on errors (except for the case of database == NULL, which was a
potential double free). When we removed those frees from _finish_open,
we introduced a (small) memory leak.
In this commit, fix the memory leak, and harmonize the on-error
behaviour with n_d_open_with_config.
During refactoring for 0.32, the code that set notmuch=NULL on various
errors was moved into _finish_open. This meant that the the code which
relied on that to set *database to NULL on error was no longer
correct. It also introduced a potential double free, since the notmuch
struct was deallocated inside _finish_open (via n_d_destroy).
In this commit we revert to "allocator frees", and leave any cleanup
to the caller of _finish_open. This allows us to get back the
behaviour of setting *database to NULL with a small change. Other
callers of _finish_open will need free notmuch on errors.
The documentation claims that the database will be set to NULL in this
case, but it is currently not happening. Based on a reproducer [1]
from Austin Ray.

This document contains meaningful markup in the terms, which makeinfo
complains about. Replace the use of definition lists with regular
paragraphs containing quote blocks. This is accomplished by splitting
the "term" from the definition with a blank line.
Sphinx-doc already formats the terms appropriately for a given
backend (bold in html and man). `makeinfo` complains noisily about
formatting inside a @item if we add our own explicit formatting.
This change may change the formatting in the info output. On the other
hand, the existing use of quotes for bold is not that great anyway.
In some places blank lines were removed to preserve the logical
structure of a definition list.
