9792d3553e Revert "notmuch.el: 'F' in search mode takes us to a list of folders."
This reverts commit fbec989fe3.

I only pushed this accidentally. See message
id:871ver6u9r.fsf@yoom.home.cworth.org for the various reasons I
didn't like this patch, (mostly I think the association of 'F' is
wrong).

43cbbfc278 notmuch.c: Shorten version string
We previously output "notmuch version 0.1" as response to notmuch --version.
Shorten this to "notmuch 0.1" as we know that we will receive a version
number when we explicitely ask for it.

b4459b8a4d emacs: Fix search filtering of a global search ("*")
With the recent addition of "*" being a special case for a search
matching all messages, we have to take care when doing a filter
operation. In this case it's not legal to simply append and get:

	* and <some-new-search-terms>

Instead we carefully construct a new search string of only:

	<some-new-search-terms>

This could all be avoided if we had a parser that could understand
"*" with the meaning we want.

75cfd0d906 TODO: Add two tasks that both have to do with auditing the library API
It was noted today in IRC that libnotmuch is not yet careful about
wrapping all Xapian calls with try/catch blocks to print nicer error
messages. It seems it would be natural to audit that at the same time
as doing the symbol-hiding work.

a29f49b943 RELEASING: Change wording of libnotmuch version instruction
We actually want this version to be incremented by the commits that
extend the interface. So the release process really is not to just
verify two things (NEWS and libnotmuch version), then run "make
VERSION=x.y release", and send the mail. Quite nice.

8700de6fb7 RELEASING: Remove a meaningless step from the release process.
The entire "make sure the code you want is in place" thing is part of
a larger release process that we don't document here at all. Instead,
we just focus here on the mechanics of pushing things out once the
larger process has determined the code is ready.

And the fewer steps there are, the better, (for making the
release-process as painless as possible and for avoiding any
mistakes).

2bf06e177d Makefile: Re-order the commands in "make release" slightly.
We put verify-version as a dependency, not a recursive action to keep
its output clean, (I know that I will always type "make release"
instead of "make VERSION=X.Y release" so I want a nice, neat
reminder).

Also, put the various ssh-based commands together, and after the
build, (so that it doesn't ask for a password/passphrase both before
and after building).

9eb53a6052 Makefile: Simplify the release targets.
Previously, we had a separate release-upload target that a user might
mistake as something useful to call directly, (which would have the
undesired effect or uploading a new package, but without first making
all the checks that we want).

So we eliminate that target, (folding its actions into "make
release"), and we also rename the several release-verify-foo targets
to simply verify-foo. This leaves as the only targets with "release"
in the name as "release" and "release-message". Both of these are
intended for the user to call directly.

cddeaa59ab make test: Actually count and report on failures.
Hurrah---no more manual verification of that PASS column.

This means that "make test" can actually be a useful part of the

are any failures).

004ed3362f test: Unify all tests to use the pass_if_equal function.
Previously some tests (dump/restore) were doing ad-hoc verification of
values and their own printing of PASS/FAIL, etc. This made it
impossible to count test pass/fail rates in a single place.

The only reason these tests were written that way was because the old
execute_expecting function only worked if one could directly test the
stdout output of a notmuch command. The recent switch to pass_if_equal
means that all tests can use it.

c48dcc302c lib: search_threads: Fix nested search to handle original search of "*"
When constructing a thread, we usually run a nested query to find all
messages in the thread that match the original search string. However,
we need to have special-case handling of an original search string of
"*" now that that is a supported means of specifying all messages.

The special-case ends up bein quite simple---we do less work, (just
skipping the nested search since we know that all messages must
match). I had been wanting to write this identical code to more
efficiently handle "notmuch search thread:<foo>" which was previously
running two identical searches. So that case is now more efficient as
well.

f0050f6dd2 test: Add a test for "notmuch search '*'"
This feature was added recently and should have gotten a new test at
the time.

As this test demonstrates, the code is broken, ("notmuch search '*'
returns bogus dates of the Unix epoch for any threads where the
term "and" does not appear in any messages).

d49eef0a3f test: Use an older date for the generated messages.
Using a date in the current year makes the test suite fragile since
the search output will include a date of "January 05" for now, but
will start doing "2010-01-05" in the future.

9c0ae2e73e test: Remove test-message filenames from generated messages
The filenames aren't predictable (including the current directory) nor
stable from one run to the next (including the PID). This makes it
hard to predict the output from a search command that returns such a
message (such as "*").

The original goal was simply to ensure that each generated message was
distinguishable somehow. So just use the message counter instead.

3846c1d12c test: Disentangle execution of notmuch from the examination of the results.
The old execute_expecting function was doing far too much for its own
good.  One of the worst aspects of this was that it introduced
shell-quoting challengers where the caller could not easily control
the precise invocation of the command to be executed.

I personally couldn't find a way to test "notmuch search '*'" without
the shell expanding * against files in the current directory, or
having bogus quotation marks appearing in the search string,
(defeating the recognition of "*" as a special search term).

Hopefully this aspect of the test suite will be much easier to maintain now.

485678413c TODO: Add some ideas about better search syntax

f1776f8b51 test: Fix reply tests to track insignificant change in output.
The recent fix to properly decode encoded headers made the expected

were two spaces before the References: value and now there is just
one).

Fix the test suite so that these are all noted as correct results
again.

3d7af74ce5 Makefile: Fix final linking of notmuch binary for OS X.
Apparently the OS X linker can't resolve symbols when linking a
program (notmuch) against a library (libnotmuch) when the library
depends on another library (libgmime) that the program doesn't depend
on directly.

For this case, we need to link the program directly against both
libraries, but we don't want to do this on Linux, where the linker can
do this on its own and the explicit, unneeded link would cause
problems.

72ea1b71c6 Makefile: Add library version information on OS X.
This encodes the library version into the library, where the linking
binary can pick it up, and the linker can even enforce mismatches in
the minor release, (such as linking a binary against version 1.2 and
then attempting to run it against version 1.1).

2fbb6d05a9 Fix bug in adding or removing tag by region.
There was a bug in notmuch-search-{add,remove}-tag-region, which would
not behave correctly if the region went beyond the last message. Now,
instead of simply iterating to the last line of the region, these
functions will iterate to the minimum of the last line of the region
and the last possible line, i.e.

(- (line-number-at-pos (point-max)) 2)

Tested-by: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org> Note that the old, buggy
behavior included infinite loops of emacs lisp code, so the new
behavior is significantly better than that.

452fbedcd5 Decode headers in reply
When headers contain non-ASCII characters, they are encoded according
to rfc2047. Nomtuch reply command emits the headers in the encoded
form, which makes them hard to read by humans who compose the reply.

For example instead of "Subject: Re: Rozlučka" one currently sees
"Subject: Re: =?iso-8859-2?q?Rozlu=E8ka?=".

This patch adds a new GMime filter which is used to decode headers to
UTF-8 and uses this filter when notmuch reply outputs headers.

9193455fa1 notmuch.el: quote args in notmuch-show to facilitate remote use
Put single-quotes around the argument of the `show --entire-thread' command
in notmuch-show. This change should have no effect on normal usage.
However, it allows us to use the notmuch.el client with a remote notmuch
binary and database over ssh (by, e.g., setting `notmuch-command' to a
simple shell script). Without the quotes, ssh will not send the command
properly.

One very simple example script is as follows. (Note that it requires
keypair login to the ssh server.)

        #!/bin/sh

        SSH_BIN="/path/to/local/ssh"
        NOTMUCH_HOST="my.remote.server"
