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 actual content type of `application/octet-stream` is up to content
type detection of the reader, and thus may not be stable across
implementations or versions. This showed up when
fd46fc19 ("emacs: document/defcustom notmuch-multipart/alternative-discouraged", 2022-05-14)
introduced a test for omitting a part of type `text/html` because it
expected a part of type `application/octet-stream` to remain in place,
i.e. a part of "unstable type". In particular, tests with `fd46fc19`
would succeed on RHEL/EPEL but fail on all current Fedoras with
```

Fix this by giving that message a specicific type of `text/x-diff` in
the test corpus, and adjust all affected test outputs.

Amended-by: db, fix some trailing whitespace
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.
Previously in message-show mode message's first header line (From
header) was always indented, even if user had turned thread
indentation off with "<" (notmuch-show-toggle-thread-indentation)
command.
This change modifies notmuch-show-insert-headerline function so that
it doesn't indent the first header line if notmuch-show-indent-content
variable is nil.
This change also modifies tests so that they expect this new output
format:
test/emacs-show.expected-output/notmuch-show-indent-thread-content-off
When we have not been able to evaluate the signature status of a given
MIME part, showing a content-free (and interaction-free) "[ Unknown
signature status ]" button doesn't really help the user at all, and
takes up valuable screen real-estate.
A visual reminder that a given message is *not* signed isn't helpful
unless it is always present, in which case we'd want to see "[ Unknown
signature status ]" buttons on all messages, even ones that don't have
a signing structure, but i don't think we want that.
Amended by db to drop the unused initialization of 'label'
We did not have a test showing what message decryption looks like
within notmuch-emacs. This change gives us a baseline for future work
on the notmuch-emacs interface.
This differs from previous revisions of this patch in that it should
be insensitive to the order in which the local filesystem readdir()s
the underlying maildir.

There are some cases like remote usage where this might cause
problems, but those users can easily customize the variable. The
inconvenience seems to be outweighed by the security benefit for most
users.
When no decryption or signature examination is
happening (i.e. `notmuch-crypto-process-mime' is `nil') insert buttons
that indicate this, rather than remaining silent.
This requires changing the contents of the crypto tests, as one thread
that was marked read by the earlier tests in test/emacs is no longer
marked read.
This moves tests for:
- 09d19ac "test: emacs: toggle eliding of non-matching messages in
`notmuch-show'", which should have actually read: "test: emacs:
toggle processing of cryptographic MIME parts in `notmuch-show'".
See commit 19ec74c5.
