Building Notmuch on macOS is known to cause problems because the Notmuch
distribution archive contains two files named "version". These names
clash with the <version> header as defined in C++20. Therefore, the
existing naming will likely become a problem on other platforms as well,
once compilers adopt the new standard.

As diagnosed by Olivier Taïbi in
id:20201027100916.emry3k2wujod4xnl@galois.lan, if an exception is
thrown while the initialization is happening (e.g. if the function is
called on a closed database), then the destructor is (sometimes)
invoked on an uninitialized Xapian object.
Solve the problem by moving the setting of the destructor until after
the placement new successfully completes. It is conceivable this might
cause a memory leak, but that seems preferable to crashing, and in any
case, there seems to be nothing better to be done if the
initialization is failing things are in an undefined state by
definition.
For portability; the realpath command (e.g. from GNU coreutils)
is not so common outside Linux systems.
The "$(cd emacs && pwd -P)" replaces that realpath(1) execution
suitably in this context (using just bash(1) builtins).
With text-quoting-style 'grave keeps "'" and "`" quotes unaltered
for further processing done by this code (regardless of locale...).
The tools that read the reStructuredText markup generated can do
their styling instead.
Added temporary conversions of ' and ` to \001 and \002 so that
's and `s outside of `...' and `...` are converted separately
('s restored back to ' and `s converted to \`).
Both `...' and `...` are finally "converted" to `...` (not ``...``).
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/user/rst/quickref.html documents
that as `interpreted text`:
"The rendering and meaning of interpreted text is domain- or
application-dependent. It can be used for things like index
entries or explicit descriptive markup (like program identifiers)."
Which looks pretty much right.
Currently `message-send-hook` functions are being called twice: In
notmuch send common when `notmuch-mua-send-hook` functions are
run (which by default includes `notmuch-mua-message-send-hook`) and in
`message-send` itself.
Because `message-send-hook` functions are run in `message-send` itself,
we don't need also need to run them before we delegate to `message-send`
Calling `notmuch-mua-message-send-hook` resulted in functions in
`message-send-hook` to be called twice. This causes bugs in
non-idempotent hook functions.
notmuch insert does not currently support passing a filename for the
input, so all of these tests have an extra error in addition to the
one being tested for.
Currently this does not make a difference because the error being
tested for is caught before the error of an extra command line
argument. In the future it might make a difference, and in any case it
is confusing.
Emacs face definition forms are either
((DISPLAY . PLIST)
(DISPLAY . PLIST))
or
((DISPLAY PLIST) ;For backward compatibility.
(DISPLAY PLIST))
Commit a2388bc56e (2020-08-08) follows
neither of the correct formats. It defines:
`((((class color) (background light))
,@(and (>= emacs-major-version 27) '(:extend t))
(:background "#f0f0f0"))
(((class color) (background dark))
,@(and (>= emacs-major-version 27) '(:extend t))
(:background "#303030")))
which produces:
((DISPLAY
:extend t (:background "#f0f0f0"))
(DISPLAY
:extend t (:background "#303030")))
And that is wrong format.
This change fixes the face definition form to produce:
((DISPLAY
:extend t :background "#f0f0f0")
(DISPLAY
:extend t :background "#303030"))
which follows the (DISPLAY . PLIST) format (see above).
This means that notmuch commands obey display-buffer-alist so the user
can customize how buffers show up.
It also permits the use of C-x 4 4, C-x 5 5 and C-x t t, available in
Emacs 28. For example, one can use C-x 4 4 M-x notmuch-jump-search RET
to open a saved search in another window rather than the current window.
Or in notmuch-search mode, C-x 5 5 RET to view the message at point in
a new frame.
notmuch-tree has custom buffer display logic, so bind
display-buffer-overriding-action to make pop-to-buffer-same-window
behave exactly as switch-to-buffer while that function is running.
This is quite fragile, but it works for now, unlike the python
version.
In general it seems conf.py is not intended to be evaluated outside of
sphinx, as it assumes certain global names (in particular "tags") are
defined.
