Several changes at once, just to not have to change the same lines
several times over:
- Use designated initializers to initialize opt desc arrays.
- Only initialize the needed fields.
- Remove arg_id (short options) as unused.
- Replace opt_type and output_var with several type safe output
variables, where the output variable being non-NULL determines the
type. Introduce checks to ensure only one is set. The downside is
some waste of const space per argument; this could be saved by
retaining opt_type and using a union, but that's still pretty
verbose.
- Fix some variables due to the type safety. Mostly a good thing, but
leads to some enums being changed to ints. This is pedantically
correct, but somewhat annoying. We could also cast, but that defeats
the purpose a bit.
- Terminate the opt desc arrays using {}.
The output variable type safety and the ability to add new fields for
just some output types or arguments are the big wins. For example, if
we wanted to add a variable to set when the argument is present, we
could do so for just the arguments that need it.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I think this looks nice when
defining the arguments, and reduces some of the verbosity we have
there.
This imports a message with ISO-8859-2 encoded characters, then opens
the database using the python bindings. We peek through all mesage
parts, afterwards print the message id.

Commit a7964c86d1 ("emacs: Sanitize authors and subjects in search
and show") added sanitization of header information for display. Do
the same for reply subjects.
This fixes the long-standing annoying artefact of certain versions of
mailman using tab as folding whitespace, leading to tabs in reply
subjects.
This is a logical followup to "lib: index the content type of
signature parts", which will make it easier to record the message
structure of all messages.
It's useful (*) to be able to easily find messages with certain types
of signatures. Having the mimetype: prefix searches fail for some
content types is also genuinely surprising (*). Index the content type
of signature parts.
While at it, switch to the gmime convenience constants for content and
signature part indexes.
*) At least for developers of email software!
Add known broken subtests for searching signed and encrypted messages
using mimetype: prefix search for the content-types of signed and
encrypted parts.
In [1] Mark showed that the the current code (d7a49e81) is not
consistent in it's handling of subjects of messages with duplicate
message-ids (or in notmuch-speak, of messages with multiple files).
notmuch-search uses indexing order and explicitedly preserves the
first. notmuch-show (apparently) uses alphabetical (or at least xapian
term order) of filenames. In a perfect world we would probably report
all subjects in the json output; at the very least we should be
consistent.

In [1], Mark gave a test that was behaving strangly. This turns out to
be specific to reindexing. I suppose one could argue that picking the
lexicographically last file name is a defensible choice, but it's
almost as easy to take the first, which seems more intuitive. So mark
the current situation as broken.
[1]: id:1503859703-2973-1-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com
The existing test for notmuch search had the first in filename order
the same as the first indexed, which made it harder to understand what
the underlying behaviour is. Add a file with a lexicographically
smaller name, but later index time to clarify this.
The original intent of this test was to verify that notmuch show was
not crashing when the first file (where headers are being read from)
was deleted. Run the output through some sanitization so that as we
add and delete copies we don't have to update this test.
Changed "" quotes to '' as we're not supposed to dynamically
alter python program (via shell $variable expansion).
Added space to python program to match general python style.
Replaced $* with 'idiomatic' "$@" to serve as better example.
In [1], Vladimir Panteleev observed that the In-Reply-To and
References headers could be wrapped in the 'default' output format of
notmuch-reply, depending on the version of Emacs creating the
message. In my own experiments notmuch-reply sometimes wraps headers
with only one message-id if that message-id is long enough. However it
happens, this causes the previous approach using grep to fail.
Since I found the proposed unwrapping shell fragment in [1] a bit hard
to follow, I decided to write a little python script instead. Then
Tomi suggested a slight generalization of my script, and here we are.

On some system configurations, setting a breakpoint on the "add_file"
function then issuing "continue" in gdb causes the debugger to
seemingly jump over the add_file invocation. This results in a test
failure, as the "Handle files vanishing between scandir and add_file"
subtest expects add_file to be called and fail due to the vanishing
file. The compiler optimization level also plays a role - the problem
can be reproduced with CFLAGS having -O2 but not -Og.
This problem was observed manifesting as a test failure on Travis CI
configured with "dist: trusty" and "sudo: false". It was not
reproducible on a local Docker image of Travis' runtime environment,
so Travis' virtualization infrastructure likely plays a role as well.
* T050-new.sh: Breakpoint notmuch_database_add_message instead of
add_file to the same effect, and avoid bad gdb behaviour on Travis
CI.
Amended by db:
s/notmuch_database_add_message/notmuch_database_index_file/
Somehow the wrapper function doesn't work as a breakpoint; perhaps due
to inlining.
We reorder reading maildir flags to avoid overwriting 'new.tags'. The
inverted status of 'unread' means the maildir flag needs to be checked
a second time.
I backpedalled here on the idea of supporting 'new.tags' without
'unread' in the presence of maildir syncing. For files in 'new/', it
seems quite natural to tag them as 'unread'.
json.tool does not sort or otherwise normalize the order of JSON keys
in its output, which can result in test failures on some test systems.
Instead, use a one-line Python script passed to the interpreter
directly on its command line. Use sort_keys=True for json.dump to
ensure the key order is normalized. The script works with both Python
2 and 3.
* test/test-lib.sh: Update test_expect_equal_json.
We need a way to pass parameters to the indexing functionality on the
first index, not just on reindexing. The obvious place is in
notmuch_database_add_message. But since modifying the argument list
would break both API and ABI, we needed a new name.
I considered notmuch_database_add_message_with_params(), but the
functionality we're talking about doesn't always add a message. It
tries to index a specific file, possibly adding a message, but
possibly doing other things, like adding terms to an existing message,
or failing to deal with message objects entirely (e.g. because the
file didn't contain a message).
So i chose the function name notmuch_database_index_file.
I confess i'm a little concerned about confusing future notmuch
developers with the new name, since we already have a private
_notmuch_message_index_file function, and the two do rather different
things. But i think the added clarity for people linking against the
future libnotmuch and the capacity for using index parameters makes
this a worthwhile tradeoff. (that said, if anyone has another name
that they strongly prefer, i'd be happy to go with it)
This changeset also adjusts the tests so that we test whether the new,
preferred function returns bad values (since the deprecated function
just calls the new one).
We can keep the deprecated n_d_add_message function around as long as
we like, but at the next place where we're forced to break API or ABI
we can probably choose to drop the name relatively safely.
NOTE: there is probably more cleanup to do in the ruby and go bindings
to complete the deprecation directly. I don't know those languages
well enough to attempt a fix; i don't know how to test them; and i
don't know the culture around those languages about API additions or
deprecations.
This patch fixes the 'Deleted first duplicate file does not stop
notmuch show from working' test.
If a message to be shown has several duplicated files, and for some
reason the first file in the list is not available anymore, notmuch
will exit with an error.
This is clearly a problem in the database, but we are not going to let
this problem be a show-stopper. Let's walk through the list, and show
the first existing file.

This patch fixes the "Insert message into folder with trailing /"
test. The problem was insufficient path canonization.
From database's point of view, "Sent" and "Sent/" are different
folders. If user runs (note the last '/'):
notmuch insert --folder=maildir/Sent/ < test.msg
notmuch will create an extra XDIRECTORY record for the folder
'Sent/'. This means that database will have _TWO_ records for _ONE_
physical folder: 'Sent' and 'Sent/'. However, the 'notmuch new'
command will update only records related to the first one (the correct
one).
Now, if user moved the email file (e.g. from 'Sent/new' to
'Sent/cur'), 'notmuch new' will add a record about the new file, but
will not delete the old record.

A leading / in paths in a .gitignore file matches the beginning of the
path, meaning that for patterns without slashes, git will match files
only in the current directory as opposed to in any subdirectory.
Prefix relevant paths with / in .gitignore files, to prevent
accidentally ignoring files in subdirectories and possibly slightly
improve the performance of "git status".
971cdc72cd renamed corpus.mail to
corpora.mail. Although 971cdc72cd
updated some of the remaining corpus.mail references, two remained,
causing the test suite to leave behind an unignored corpora.mail
directory.
The corresponding xapian document just gets more terms added to it,
but this doesn't seem to break anything. Values on the other hand get
overwritten, which is a bit annoying, but arguably it is not worse to
take the values (from, subject, date) from the last file indexed
rather than the first.
There are many other problems that could be tested, but these ones we
have some hope of fixing because it doesn't require UI changes, just
indexing changes.
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.
gmime 3.0 no longer offers a means to set the path for gpg.
Users can set $PATH anyway if they want to pick a
differently-installed gpg (e.g. /usr/local/bin/gpg), so this isn't
much of a reduction in functionality.
The one main difference is for people who have tried to use "gpg2" to
make use of gpg 2.1, but that isn't usefully co-installable anyway.
The reply-to munging code might behave differently whether there's an
exact match on the strings or not, or whether the string is a raw
addr-spec instead of an name-addr. These tests cover those variations
(i also had to tweak json output further below when this new test was
added).
Since the error field is unused by the emacs front end, no changes are
needed other than bumping the format version number.
As it is, this is a bit overengineered, but it will reduce duplication
when we support gmime 3.0
This is another case where the behaviour of gmime-2.6 and gmime-3.0
seems to differ. It may be that we prefer the more lax parsing of the
previous version, but that should be tested separately.
Since gnupg 2.1.20, gpg-agent no longer shut itself down when
$GNUPGHOME directory is removed.
Add exit hooks to the test modules which execute `gpgconf --kill all`
Add exit hooks to execute `gpgconf --kill all` in the modules that
create $GNUPGHOME for gpg to work with.
New function at_exit_function registers given function to be called
at script termination.
Functions so registered are called in the reverse order of their
registration; no arguments are passed.
Function is called only once; re-adding with function name already
registered will remove previous registration.
New function rm_exit_function can be used to remove registration.
Modules (and possibly test-lib.sh functions) in future commits will
register such functions.
The dynamic generation of the linker version script for libnotmuch
exports has grown rather complicated.
Reverse the visibility control by hiding symbols by default using
-fvisibility=hidden, and explicitly exporting symbols in notmuch.h
using #pragma GCC visibility. (We could also use __attribute__
((visibility ("default"))) for each exported function, but the pragma
is more convenient.)
The above is not quite enough alone, as it would "leak" a number of
weak symbols from Xapian and C++ standard library. Combine it with a
small static version script that filters out everything except the
notmuch_* symbols that we explicitly exposed, and the C++ RTTI
typeinfo symbols for exception handling.
Finally, as the symbol hiding test can no longer look at the generated
symbol table, switch the test to parse the functions from notmuch.h.
From a UI perspective this looks similar to what was already provided
for from, subject, and mid, but the implementation is quite
different. It uses the database's list of terms to construct a term
based query equivalent to the passed regular expression.
'quite' on IRC reported that notmuch new was grinding to a halt during
initial indexing, and we eventually narrowed the problem down to some
html parts with large embedded images. These cause the number of terms
added to the Xapian database to explode (the first 400 messages
generated 4.6M unique terms), and of course the resulting terms are
not much use for searching.
The second test is sanity check for any "improved" indexing of HTML.
These 210 messages are in several long threads, which is good for
testing our threading code, and may be useful just as a larger test
corpus in the future.
The non-field processor behaviour is is convert the corresponding
queries into a search for the unprefixed terms. This yields pretty
surprising results so I decided to generate a query that would match
the terms (i.e. none with that prefix) generated for an empty header.
Make test-lib-common.sh load test-lib-<$PLATFORM>.sh to create
additional shim for platform specifics.
Use test-lib-FREEBSD.sh to call GNU utilities instead of native ones.
- amended by db following Tomi's suggestions
The argument is that if the string passed to the field processor has
no spaces, then the added quotes won't have any benefit except for
disabling wildcards. But disabling wildcards doesn't seem very useful
in the normal Xapian query parser, since they're stripped before
generating terms anyway. It does mean that the query 'from:"foo*"' will
not be precisely equivalent to 'from:foo' as it is for the non
field-processor version.
This was broken by the addition of regexp searching. The detection of
wildcards is not currently done in the recursive call to parse_query,
because of quoting issues.
This function was deprecated in notmuch 0.21. We re-use the name for
a status returning version, and deprecate the _st name. One or two
remaining uses of the (removed) non-status returning version fixed at
the same time
Apparently some systems (MacOS?) have a system library called libutil
and the name conflict causes problems. Since this library is quite
notmuch specific, rename it to something less generic.
Often Linux systems are shipped with wget(1) by default (and no curl).
Many BSDs, macOS, and e.g. some Linux minimal/container images
comes with curl(1) (and no wget).
Attempting to download with curl if wget is not available increases
the likelihood for this to succeed.
For reasons not completely understood at this time, gmime (as of
2.6.22) is returning a date before 1900 on bad date input. Since this
confuses some other software, we clamp such dates to 0,
i.e. 1970-01-01.
Some gdb python exceptions on some os environments (e.g. macOS
Sierra, non-codesigned gdb) do not make gdb exit (but to drop down
to nonexistent command line?).
Mitigate this chance by explict SystemExit on all exceptions.
The contents of output file 'gdb.out' is unchanged.
Unify the subtests by requiring test_begin_subtest before
test_expect_code. (Similar change for test_expect_success has already
been done.)
This increases clarity in the test scripts by having a separate line

to simplify the test infrastructure by making all subtests similar.

The only place where we use the implicit prereq check is T000-basic.sh
where we check that it works. It's an added complication that we don't
use. Remove it.
The test_have_prereq function can still be used for the same effect in
subtests that use test_begin_subtest. For now, this will make it
impossible to have prereqs in one-line subtests that don't require
test_begin_subtest. This will be fixed in follow-up work.
Known broken tests are, well, known broken. Do not print the result
diff for them unless V=1 is specified. Now that the test description
is printed also when known broken tests fail, the user can also skip
to running the individual failing tests.
Headers of more than 998 characters should be folded when sending.
However, until recently, emacs did not do this.
This adds a (known broken) test for this when sending messages in
emacs. We will backport the fix to notmuch-emacs in the next
changeset.
We filter added exclude at add time, rather than modifying the query by
count search. As noted in the comments, there are several ignored
conditions here.
The main goal is to prepare the way for non-destructive (or at least
less destructive) exclude tag handling. It does this by having a
pre-parsed query available for further processing. This also allows us
to provide slightly more precise error messages.
mid: is the url scheme suggested by URL 2392. We also plan to
introduce more flexible searches for mid: than are possible with
id: (in order not to break assumptions about the special behaviour of
id:, e.g. identifying at most one message).
the idea is that you can run
% notmuch search subject:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
% notmuch search from:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
or
% notmuch search subject:"your usual phrase search"
% notmuch search from:"usual phrase search"
This feature is only available with recent Xapian, specifically
support for field processors is needed.
It should work with bindings, since it extends the query parser.
This is easy to extend for other value slots, but currently the only
value slots are date, message_id, from, subject, and last_mod. Date is
already searchable; message_id is left for a followup commit.
This was originally written by Austin Clements, and ported to Xapian
field processors (from Austin's custom query parser) by yours truly.
We already use this directory for dtach sockets, so it makes sense to
put gnupg sockets there as well. There doesn't seem to be a clean way
to put a fully functional socket in a different location than
GNUPGHOME.
This reverts commit e7b88e8b0a.
It turns out that this does not work well in environments without a
running systemd (or some other provider of /run/user)
Apparently our test system does not use the same flags for compiling
tests as it does for compiling notmuch. Make the test compatible with
C89. Also remove one unused loop index.
Instead of just having the first filename for the message, list all
duplicate filenames of the message as a list in the formatted
outputs. This bumps the format version to 3.
The retries are hardcoded to a small number, and error handling aborts
than propagating errors from notmuch_database_reopen. These are both
somewhat justified by the assumption that most things that can go
wrong in Xapian::Database::reopen are rare and fatal. Here's the brief
discussion with Xapian upstream:
24-02-2017 08:12:57 < bremner> any intuition about how likely
Xapian::Database::reopen is to fail? I'm catching a
DatabaseModifiedError somewhere where handling any further errors is
tricky, and wondering about treating a failed reopen as as "the
impossible happened, stopping"
24-02-2017 16:22:34 < olly> bremner: there should not be much scope for
failure - stuff like out of memory or disk errors, which are probably a
good enough excuse to stop
$NOTMUCH_PYTHON is sourced from sh.config, configured by
./configure and stated to be used as:
"Name of python command to use in configure and the test suite."
This enables the shortened socket pathes in /run or equivalent. The
explicit call to gpgconf is needed for nonstandard GNUPGHOME settings.
(amended according to id:m2fujatr4k.fsf@guru.guru-group.fi)
Attempt to distinguish between errors indicating misconfiguration or
programmer error, which we consider "permanent", in the sense that
automatic retries are unlikely to be useful, and those indicating
transient error conditions. We consider XAPIAN_EXCEPTION transient
because it covers the important special case of locking failure.
Running `gdb command < input` is not as reliable way to give input
to the command (some installations of gdb consume it). Use "set args"
gdb command to have input redirected at gdb 'run' time.
GnuPG 2.1.16 is now injecting the full issuer fingerprint in its
signatures, which makes them about 32 octets larger when
ascii-armored.
This change in size means that the size of the MIME parts will vary
depending on the version of gpg that the user has installed. at any
rate, the signature part should be non-zero (this is true for
basically any MIME part), so we just test for that instead of an exact
size.
emacs24 and emacs23 have different secure tag defaults: in particular,
mml-secure-message-sign only signs the part on emacs23 but the whole
message on emacs24. This difference makes one of the draft tests fail
(which causes a cascade of later failures) on emacs23. It seems that
travis uses emacs23 so it is useful to fix this.
We do this by forcing the whole message to be signed in either case --
the code snippet is extracted from mml-secure-message-sign on emacs24.
Provide functionality to resume editing a message previously saved with
notmuch-draft-save, including decoding the X-Notmuch-Emacs-Secure
header.
Resume gets the raw file from notmuch and using the emacs function
mime-to-mml reconstructs the message (including attachments).
'e' is bound to resume a draft from show or tree mode.
This provides initial support for postponing in the emacs frontend;
resuming will follow in a later commit. On saving/postponing it uses
notmuch insert to put the message in the notmuch database
Current bindings are C-x C-s to save a draft, C-c C-p to postpone a
draft (save and exit compose buffer).
Previous drafts get tagged deleted on subsequent saves, or on the
message being sent.
Each draft gets its own message-id, and we use the namespace
draft-.... for draft message ids (so, at least for most people, drafts
are easily distinguisable).
Moved the 2 basename(1) executions to the test failure branch in
test_expect_equal_file ().
The output of basename(1) executions in function test_expect_equal_file ()
are only used when tests fails -- when all tests pass these 2 basename(1)
executions are no longer done at all.
Thanks to Lucas (id:147263183913.27784.12274024193186585889@mbp) for the
bug report and the test case.
I decided to use the python version because the python bindings could
use more exercise.
In case of the test script is to be relaunced under valgrind, or --tee
is requested, use the $BASH shell variable to locate the command
interpreter. The $SHELL variable is re-set by non-interactive shells
so in case the shell uses some other shell (e.g. zsh) for interactive
use these bash scripts continue to work.
This is a strange corner case where the removing of the user's address
from the To: header does the wrong thing. If we think it is
worth (eventually) fixing, this test can serve as a reminder.
We want to be able to query the properties directly, like:
notmuch count property:foo=bar
which should return a count of messages where the property with key
"foo" has value equal to "bar".
This stops the (usually incorrect) sigstatus and encstatus buttons
appearing when replying in emacs, and updates the test suite to match.
Overriding the status button functions is a little unusual but much
less intrusive than passing an argument all the way down the call
chain. It also makes it clear exactly what it does.
We also hide the application/pgp-encrypted part as it can only contain
"Version: 1". We do this in notmuch show, which means it also happens
when replying.
Pass in GMimeMessage to simplify To/Cc/Bcc headers. We'll eventually
remove the notmuch message passing altogether, but keep both for now
to not make too big changes at once.
Getting the headers from GMimeMessage using GMime functions fixes the
error on duplicate Cc headers reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
<dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in id:87d1ngv95p.fsf@alice.fifthhorseman.net.
Get rid of an intermediate function.
The small annoyance is the ownership differences in the address lists.
As Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> reports in
id:87d1ngv95p.fsf@alice.fifthhorseman.net, notmuch show combines
multiple Cc: fields into one, while notmuch reply does not. While such
messages are in violation of RFC 5322, it would be reasonable to
expect notmuch to be consistent. Add a known broken test to document
this expectation.
This also starts a new "broken" corpus for messages which are broken.
Details:
The original message is formatted using the message printing in
notmuch-show.c. For Cc:, it uses g_mime_message_get_recipients(),
which apparently combines all Cc: fields into one internally.
The addresses in the reply headers, OTOH, are based on headers queried
through libnotmuch. It boils down to g_mime_object_get_header() in
lib/message-file.c, which returns only the first occurence of header.
We largely use the corpus under test/corpus for
testing. Unfortunately, many of our tests have grown to depend on
having exactly this set of messages, making it hard to add new message
files for testing specific cases.
We do use a lot of add_message from within the tests, but it's not
possible to use that for adding broken messages, and adding several
messages at once can get unwieldy.
Move the basic corpus under tests/corpora/default, and make it
possible to add new, independent corpora along its side. This means
tons of renames with a few tweaks to add_email_corpus function in
test-lib.sh to let tests specify which corpus to use.
Originally the intent was to make the test more robust against changing
test keys. It turns out that (unscientifically) gpg --with-colons output
changes more often than our test key. Rather than making the script more
complex, just hard code the fingerprint.
This fixes Debian bug #847013; I expect similar test failures as other
distros adopt gnupg 2.1.15
With all the preparation it is now simple to add the actual insert
code. Since insert can fail for many reasons we let the user decide
interactively deal with it.
We modify test-lib.el to set file fcc, so that all the old tests and
emacs_fcc_message from test-lib.sh still work
gdb sometimes writes warnings to stdout, which we don't need/want, and
for some reason --batch-silent isn't enough to hide. So in this commit
we write them to a log file, which is probably better for debugging
anyway. To see an illustrative test failure before this change, run
% make
% touch notmuch-count.c
% cd test && ./T060-count.sh

The User-Agent: header can be fun and interesting, but it also leaks
quite a bit of information about the user and their software stack.
This represents a potential security risk (attackers can target the
particular stack) and also an anonymity risk (a user trying to
preserve their anonymity by sending mail from a non-associated account
might reveal quite a lot of information if their choice of mail user
agent is exposed).
This change also avoids hiding the User-Agent header by default, so
that people who decide they want to send it will at least see it (and
can edit it if they want to) before sending.
It makes sense to have safer defaults.
Previously notmuch-wash made the width of the text (approximately) the
window-width minus the depth in thread. This is correct for the
default indentation of 1 per message depth, but is incorrect for any
other setting of notmuch-show-indent-messages-width.
As notmuch-show-indent-messages-width is customisable, and notmuch-tree
sets it to zero to avoid indenting messages in the message pane, this
bug can show up in real use.
Two of the tests had to be updated: when
notmuch-show-indent-messages-width is 0, then the new (correct) word
wrapping happens later, when notmuch-show-indent-messages-width is 4,
then the new word wrapping happens sooner.

This has been wrong since bbbdf0478e, but the race condition was not
previously been (often?) triggered in the tests. With the DB_RETRY_LOCK
patches, it manifests itself as a deadlock.
This support will be present only if the appropriate version of xapian
is available _and_ the user did not disable the feature when
building. So there really needs to be some way for the user to check.
This has been wrong since bbbdf0478e, but the race condition was not
previously been (often?) triggered in the tests. With the DB_RETRY_LOCK
patches, it manifests itself as a deadlock.
A few simple things that applies well to test/notmuch-test.sh
- Shell does pathname expansion also without doing `echo ...` in subshell.
- Redirections >/dev/null 2>/dev/null hide (improbable but) potential
serious errors; adding -f to rm instead.
- Inter-file capitalization consistency in comments.
- Unnecesary space removal.
The trick of having a common header file doesn't work to share between
test scripts, so make an include file in the test directory.
The use of #include <notmuch-test.h> looks slightly pretentious, but
the include file is not actually in the current (temporary) directory.
Place PYTHONPATH to the environment when python is executed in a way
that current shell environment is not affected. This also allows adding
the old value of PYTHONPATH to the end of the new value (otherwise it
would have been appended again and again when test_python is called).
At the same time, use -B option to avoid writing .pyc files to
bindings/python/* (which are not cleared out by distclean).
Drop the (unused) prefix code which preserved the original stdout of the
python program and opened sys.stdout to OUTPUT. In place of that there
is now note how (debug) information can be printed to original stdout.
Previously LD_LIBRARY_PATH was exported (and environment changed)
in the middle of test case execution, when a function setting it
was called.
Previously the old contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH was lost (if any)
when it was re-set and exported. In some systems the old contents of
LD_LIBRARY_PATH was needed to e.g. locate suitable gmime library.
In scripts that include test-lib-common.sh but not test-lib.sh
the die() implementation needs to be a bit different due to
fd redirection differences. test-lib-common.sh implements die()
only if it was not implemented already.
Added die() function to test-lib.sh with the following first use of it:
If notmuch new fails during email corpus addition the database is
most probably inexistent or broken and the added corpus would be
unusable while running single tests, giving misleading failures
("only" full 'make test' cleans out old corpus).
Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved
using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i
could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs
found in tests.
Most of the infrastructure here is general, only the validation/dispatch
is hardcoded to a particular prefix.
A notable change in behaviour is that notmuch-config now opens the
database e.g. on every call to list, which fails with an error message
if the database doesn't exit yet.
Since xapian provides the ability to restrict the iterator to a given
prefix, we expose this ability to the user. Otherwise we mimic the other
iterator interfances in notmuch (e.g. tags.c).
This is a thin wrapper around the Xapian metadata API. The job of this
layer is to keep the config key value pairs from colliding with other
metadata by transparently prefixing the keys, along with the usual glue
to provide a C interface.
The split of _get_config into two functions is to allow returning of the
return value with different memory ownership semantics.
The Ruby bindings were missing a way to get all the tags of the
database. Now you should be able to access this with the public
instance method `all_tags` of your database object.
Example of use:
notmuchdb = Notmuch::Database.new path, { :create => false,
:mode => Notmuch::MODE_READ_ONLY }
my_tags = notmuchdb.all_tags
my_tags.each { |tag|
print tag
}
my_tags.destroy!
Amended by db: improve error reporting, add test
Files in test directories had only copyright of a single individual,
of which code was adapted here as a base of the test system.
Since then many Notmuch Developers have contributed to the test
system, which is now acknowledged with a constant string in some
of the test files.
The README file in test directory instructed new files contain a
copyright notice, but that has never been done (and it is also not
needed). To simplify things a bit (and lessen confusion) this
instruction is now removed.
As a side enchangement, all of the 3 entries in the whole source
tree cd'ing to `dirname` of "$0" now uses syntax cd "$(dirname "$0")".
This makes these particular lines work when current working directory
is e.g. /c/Program Files/notmuch/test/.
(Probably it would fail elsewhere, though.)
In case of notmuch reply and notmuch show --part=N it is required that
search terms match to one message. If match count was != 1, error
message "Error: search term did not match precisely one message"
was too vague to explain what happened.
By appending (matched <num> messages) to the error message it
makes the problem more understandable (e.g when <num> is '0'
user reckons the query had a typo in it).
To fully complete the ghost-on-removal-when-shared-thread-exists
proposal, we need to clear all ghost messages when the last active
message is removed from a thread.
Amended by db: Remove the last test of T530, as it no longer makes sense
if we are garbage collecting ghost messages.
implement ghost-on-removal, the solution to T590-thread-breakage.sh
that just adds a ghost message after removing each message.
It leaks information about whether we've ever seen a given message id,
but it's a fairly simple implementation.
Note that _resolve_message_id_to_thread_id already introduces new
message_ids to the database, so i think just searching for a given
message ID may introduce the same metadata leakage.
This test (T590-thread-breakage.sh) has known-broken subtests.
If you have a two-message thread where message "B" is in-reply-to "A",
notmuch rightly sees this as a single thread.
But if you:
* remove "A" from the message store
* run "notmuch new"
* add "A" back into the message store
* re-run "notmuch new"
Then notmuch sees the messages as distinct threads.
This happens because if you insert "B" initially (before anything is
known about "A"), then a "ghost message" gets added to the database in
reference to "A" that is in the same thread, which "A" takes over when
it appears.
But if "A" is subsequently removed, no ghost message is retained, so
when "A" appears, it is treated as a new thread.
I see a few options to fix this:
ghost-on-removal
----------------
We could unilaterally add a ghost upon message removal. This has a
few disadvantages: the message index would leak information about what
messages the user has ever been exposed to, and we also create a
perpetually-growing dataset -- the ghosts can never be removed.
ghost-on-removal-when-shared-thread-exists
------------------------------------------
We could add a ghost upon message removal iff there are other
non-ghost messages with the same thread ID.
We'd also need to remove all ghost messages that share a thread when
the last non-ghost message in that thread is removed.
This still has a bit of information leakage, though: the message index
would reveal that i've seen a newer message in a thread, even if i had
deleted it from my message store
track-dependencies
------------------
rather than a simple "ghost-message" we could store all the (A,B)
message-reference pairs internally, showing which messages A reference
which other messages B.
Then removal of message X would require deleting all message-reference
pairs (X,B), and only deleting a ghost message if no (A,X) reference
pair exists.
This requires modifying the database by adding a new and fairly weird
table that would need to be indexed by both columns. I don't know
whether xapian has nice ways to do that.
scan-dependencies
-----------------
Without modifying the database, we could do something less efficient.
Upon removal of message X, we could scan the headers of all non-ghost
messages that share a thread with X. If any of those messages refers
to X, we would add a ghost message. If none of them do, then we would
just drop X entirely from the table.
---------------------
One risk of attempted fixes to this problem is that we could fail to
remove the search term indexes entirely. This test contains
additional subtests to guard against that.
This test also ensures that the right number of ghost messages exist
in each situation; this will help us ensure we don't accumulate ghosts
indefinitely or leak too much information about what messages we've
seen or not seen, while still making it easy to reassemble threads
when messages come in out-of-order.
The code to skip multiple slashes in _notmuch_database_split_path()
skips back one character too much. This is compensated by a +1 in the
length parameter to the strndup() call. Mostly this works fine, but if
the path is to a file under a top level directory with one character
long name, the directory part is mistaken to be part of the file name
(slash == path in code). The returned directory name will be the empty
string and the basename will be the full path, breaking the indexing
logic in notmuch new.
Fix the multiple slash skipping to keep the slash variable pointing at
the last slash, and adjust strndup() accordingly.
The bug was introduced in

Author: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org>
Date: Sat Dec 19 13:20:26 2009 -0800
database: Store the parent ID for each directory document.
just a little over two months after the initial commit in the Notmuch
code history, making this the longest living bug in Notmuch to date.
In several places in the test suite we intentionally corrupt the Xapian
database in order to test error handling. This corruption is specific to
the on-disk organization of the database, and that changed with the
glass backend. We use the previously computed default backend to make
the tests adapt to changing names.
This is mainly for the test suite. We already expect the tests to be
run in the same environment as configure was run, at least to get the
name of the python interpreter. So we are not really imposing a new
restriction.
This should potentially be updated to have an equivalent optimization
for the glass backend, but it in my unscientific tests, the glass backend
without the optimization is faster then the chert backend with.
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.
in d27d90875d (2016-02-20) notmuch-mua-reply-insert-header-p-function
was set to notmuch-show-reply-insert-header-p-never as its default was
changed to something else. Now that default is set back to *-never so
this change done in d27d90875d is not needed anymore.
We only need a long string, not a single long term to trigger batch
mode. The giant term triggers a bug/incompatibility in Xapian 1.3.4
that throws an exception because it is longer than the Xapian term size
limit.
Move the brief help text at the bottom of the hello screen to the
notmuch-hello-mode help, and promote '?' as the universal help key
across Notmuch. This unclutters the hello screen, and allows for a
more verbose description in the mode help. Hopefully, this change is
useful for both experienced and new users alike.
While at it, improve the links to Notmuch and hello screen
customization.
A while ago test script names were changed to format
Tddd-basename.sh. Update README to reflect that.
While at it, included some small requirements updates.
Add a customizable function specifying which parts get a header when
replying, and give some sensible possiblities. These are,
1) all parts except multipart/*. (Subparts of a multipart part do
receive a header button.)
2) only included text/* parts.
3) Exactly as in the show buffer.
4) None at all. This means the reply contains a mish-mash of all the
original message's parts.
In the test suite we set the choice to option 4 to match the
previous behaviour.
Use the message display code to generate message text to cite in
replies.
For now we set insert-headers-p function to
notmuch-show-reply-insert-header-p-never so that, as before, we don't
insert part buttons.
With that choice of insert-headers-p function there is only one
failing test: this test has a text part (an email message) listed as
application/octet-stream. Notmuch show displays this part, but the
reply code omitted it as it had type application/octet-stream. The new
code correctly includes it. Thus update the expected output to match.
notmuch-show --verify will now also process S/MIME multiparts if
encountered. Requires gmime-2.6 and gpgsm.
Based on work by Jameson Graef Rollins <jrollins@finestructure.net>.
The test is pretty much cut and paste from the PGP/MIME version, with
obvious updates taken from notmuch output. This also requires setting
up gpgsm infrastucture.
Test the ability of notmuch-mua-mail to send S/MIME signed (and
encrypted) messages; this really relies on existing functionality in
message-mode.
The generated keys and messages will later be useful for testing the
notmuch CLI.
ALTERNATE_EDITOR causes emacsclient to run an alternate editor if the
emacs server is not ready. This can collide with intended
functionality in test-lib.sh.
If the ALTERNATE_EDITOR is set but empty, emacsclient runs emacs
daemon and tries to connect to it. When this happens the emacs run by
test-lib.sh fails to start the server and the subsequent attempts to
use the server fail because the daemon started by emacsclient does not
know about notmuch-test-progn. This leads to test suite failure due to
time out on any emacs test.
When notmuch sources are at a symlinked path, some tests fail because
one part of the test uses physical path and another uses logical
path (with symlinks). For example the following test output is
produced when the test is started from /home/src/symlink-to-notmuch,
which is a symlink to /home/src/notmuch.

Of course I can't duplicate the mentioned problem, it probably depends
on specific message data.
Per RFC 2183, the values for Content-Disposition values are not
case-sensitive. While at it, use the gmime function for getting at the
disposition string instead of referencing the field directly.
This fixes "attachment" tagging and filename term generation for
attachments while indexing.
There was a problem with the directory documents being left behind when
the filesystem directory was removed. This was worked around in [1].
However, that ignored the fact that the directory documents are also
still listed by notmuch_directory_get_child_directories() leading to
confusing results when running notmuch new. The directory documents are
found and queued for removal over and over again.
Fix the problem for real by removing the directory documents. This fixes
the tests flagged as broken in [2].
The (non-deterministic) hack test from [3] also still passes with this
change.

breakage with (lack of) directory deletion.

First a simple smoke test first, next generate messages with multiple
email address variants and check the behaviour of deduplication
schemes with these.
It doesn't seem likely we can support simple date:<expr> expanding to
date:<expr>..<expr> any time soon. (This can be done with a future
version of Xapian, or with a custom query query parser.) In the mean
time, provide shorthand date:<expr>..! to mean the same. This is
useful, as the expansion takes place before interpetation, and we can
use, for example, date:yesterday..! to match from beginning of
yesterday to end of yesterday.
Idea from Mark Walters <markwalters1009@gmail.com>.
It isn't completely clear what we want to do here, but
1) We currently don't fail if we skip a whole test file (mainly because
we neglect to count those skipped tests properly). This change at least
makes the two kinds of skipping consistent.
2) Automated build environments may have good reasons for building with
a minimal set of prereqs, and we don't want to discourage running our
test suite by breaking builds.
Check argc mainly to fix unused parameter warning:
test/symbol-test.cc:7:14: warning: unused parameter ‘argc’ [-Wunused-parameter]
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
^
This makes more sense than telling the compiler it's unused on
purpose.
This brings back status information that may have been hidden by the
great library logging conversion.
Note the change of the internal API / return-value for count_files. The
other count calls to the lib will also get error handling when that API
is updated in the lib.
The function notmuch_exit_if_unmatched_db_uuid is split from
notmuch_process_shared_options because it needs an open notmuch
database.
There are two exceptional cases in uuid handling.
1) notmuch config and notmuch setup don't currently open the database,
so it doesn't make sense to check the UUID.
2) notmuch compact opens the database inside the library, so we either
need to open the database just to check uuid, or change the API.
In the short term we need a way to get lastmod information e.g. for
the test suite. In the long term we probably want to add lastmod
information to at least the structured output for several other
clients (e.g. show, search).
This exposes the committed database revision to library users along
with a UUID that can be used to detect when revision numbers are no
longer comparable (e.g., because the database has been replaced).
The files (test) scripts source (with builtin command `.`) provides
information which the scripts depend, and without the `source` to
succeed allowing script to continue may lead to dangerous situations
(e.g. rm -rf "${undefined_variable}"/*).
At the end of all source (.) lines construct ' || exit 1' was added;
In our case the script script will exit if it cannot find (or read) the
file to be sourced. Additionally script would also exits if the last
command of the sourced file exited nonzero.
Previously we globally modified these variables, which tended to cause
problems for people using message-mode, but not notmuch-mua-mail, to
send mail.
User visible changes:
- Calling notmuch-fcc-header-setup is no longer optional. OTOH, it
seems to do the right thing if notmuch-fcc-dirs is set to nil.
- The Fcc header is visible during message composition
- The name in the mode line is changed, and no longer matches exactly
the menu label.
- Previously notmuch-mua-send-and-exit was never called. Either we
misunderstood define-mail-user-agent, or it had a bug. So there was
no difference if the user called message-send-and-exit directly. Now
there will be.
- User bindings to C-c C-c and C-c C-s in message-mode-map are
overridden. The user can override them in notmuch-message-mode-map,
but then they're on their own for Fcc handling.
I marked the tests where I really couldn't understand the output as
broken. It could also be that I don't understand how directory removal
is supposed to work.
Try to narrow down what part of the code adds files and directories to
the queue(s) to be deleted.
Update one test. The output is slightly confusing, but I believe it is
correct, resulting from a directory being discovered but containing only ignored files.
The configure script chooses "python" if both python and python{2,3}
exist exists, so this could change the version of python used to run
the test suite.
The checking for ${NOTMUCH_PYTHON} in the test suite is arguably
over-engineering, since the configure step will fail if it can't find
it.
There are many places in the notmuch code where the path is assumed to be absolute. If someone (TM) wants a project, one could remove these assumptions. In the mean time, prevent users from shooting themselves in the foot.
Update test suite mark tests for this error as no longer broken, and
also convert some tests that used relative paths for nonexistent
directories.
The difference with FILE_ERROR is that this is for things that are
wrong with the path before looking at the disk.
Add some 3 tests; two broken as a reminder to actually use this new
code.
In the case the these tests fail, they generate a bunch of output;
this output is not very interesting because it is just the successful
output of a man page. It does however make it hard to see what tests are actually failing, even with NOTMUCH_TEST_QUIET
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.
Quoting Debian bug 787341
It failed to build on arm64: the last ten tests in T070-insert
failed.
What's happening here is that GDB is segfaulting in response to
the
"file" command. GDB on arm64 can be a bit buggy.
However, the "file" command is redundant here as GDB has already
got
the file from the --args on the command line.
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.
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.
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.
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
If seconds are not specified in the string to be parsed, they're not
set according to the reference time (in the no rounding case) nor
rounded properly (in the rounding up cases). Fix this.
The bug caused searches such as date:10:30..10:30 to match messages
with date exactly 10:30:00 only, and not in range 10:30:00..10:30:59
(inclusive) as documented.
Note that date searches referring "noon" or "5pm" will still be
interpreted as exact to the second.
Extract and add some more tests relating to rounding seconds into a
separate subtest, and flag it as broken. If seconds are not specified,
the time is not set or rounded according to the interface defined in
parse-time-string/parse-time-string.h. Instead, seconds are always set
to 00 in reality, which is broken.
Set the reference time to 12:13:14 instead of 11:11:00 to ensure hours
and minutes are not mixed up, and seconds are really set instead of
defaulted to 00.
This adds the indexing support for the "mimetype:" term and removes
the broken test flag. The indexing is probablistic in Xapian terms,
which gives a better experience to end users. Standard content-types
of the form "foo/bar" are automatically interpreted as phrases in
Xapian due to the embedded slash.
Assume, separate messages with application/pdf and application/x-pdf
are indexed, then:
- mimetype:application/x-pdf will find only the application/x-pdf
- mimetype:application/pdf will find only the application/pdf
- mimetype:pdf will find both of the messages
Adds three failing unit tests for searching of mime-types.
An attempt was made at adding a negative test (i.e. searching for a
non-existent mime-type and ensuring it didn't return a message), but
that test would always pass making it pointless.
When something in tests fails one possibility to test is to run
the test script as `bash -x TXXX-testname.sh`. As stderr (fd 2) was
redirected to separate file during test execution also this set -x
(xtrace) output would also go there.
test-lib.sh saves the stderr to fd 7 from where it can be restored,
and bash has BASH_XTRACEFD variable, which is now given the same value
7, making bash to output all xtrade information (consistently) there.
This lib file used to save fd's 1 & 2 to 6 & 7 (respectively) in
test_begin_subtest(), but as those needs to be set *before* XTRACEFD
variable is set those are now saved at the beginning of the lib (once).
This is safe and simple thing to do.
To make xtrace output more verbose PS4 variable was set to contain the
source file, line number and if execution is in function, that function
name. Setting this variable has no effect when not xtracing.
As it is known that fd 6 is redirected stdout, printing status can now
use that fd, instead of saving stdout to fd 5 and use it.
At the moment, the test-lib fills in any missing headers. This makes
it impossible to test our handling of empty subjects. This will
allow us to use a special dummy subject -- `@FORCE_EMPTY` -- to force
the subject to remain empty.
We generally do not support mbox files, but for historical reasons
we've supported single-message mbox files, with a deprecation
message. We've tried dropping the support altogether, but backed out
of it because we'd need to stop indexing them, while keeping support
for previously indexed files. This would be more complicated than
simply supporting single-message mbox files. Therefore, drop the
deprecation message, and just silently accept single-message mboxes.
Currently, if a From-header is of the form:
"" <address@example.com>
the empty string will be treated as a valid real-name, and the entry
in the search results will be empty.
The new behavior here is that we treat an empty real-name field as if
it were null, so that the email address will be used in the search
results instead.
Signed-off-by: Jesse Rosenthal <jrosenthal@jhu.edu>
We test for whether a quoted empty email address
"" <address@example.com>
will show up as the address, instead of the empty string. This is
marked as known-broken, since the current behavior is to use the empty
string.
This is a new test file, since handling of unusual email addresses
doesn't seem to fit well in any of our existing tests.

combination.

One test updated to have --output=count without sender nor recipient

This filters out duplicate addresses from address command output.
It also also adds tests for the address command.
The code here is an extended version of a patch from Jani Nikula.
python3 doesn't allow dictionaries to be initialized with non-string
keywords. This presents problems on systems in which "python" means
"python3". We instead initalize the dictionary using the dict
comprehension and then update it with the values from the tree. This
will work with both python2 and python3.
Apparently the test binaries are built with minimal LDFLAGS, only
adding dependency specific LDFLAGS as needed. However because some of
the test binaries incorporate notmuch object files, it is necessary to
use the same link flags as notmuch. For example user provided
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS/LDFLAGS with -fsanitize=undefined fails to build the
test binaries if the flags differ.
In emacs 24.4 the messages buffer starts being read-only, which kills
these tests. This seems to be the point of the variable
inihibit-read-only, which has existed at least since emacs 21.
After yet another variation in objdump output caused this test to fail
(on a Debian port, no less), I decided whatever putative benefit we
get from looking at the object files instead of the library isn't
worth the maintenence headache.
This version uses nm -P. nm -P should be portable, and fixed format.
It purposely doesn't use the -D argument, since that is non-POSIX and
nm on GNU/Linux seems do the right thing without it.
It still won't work out of the box on e.g. Mac OS/X. I think the right
thing to do there is to move some more configuration information into
sh.config.

often broke with newer versions of GDB for mysterious reasons. Port
the test script to GDB's Python API, which makes the code much cleaner
and, hopefully, more stable.

Add --keep option to keep any remaining stuff in index or file. We
could distinguish between failures to index and failures to apply tags
or maildir sync, but for simplicity just have one.

In the future, tests may rely on debug symbols being present in
notmuch, so we plan to switch the default flags.
The main purpose of this test is to help explain the perhaps
mysterious failures of other tests which rely on symbols being
present.
The test of viewing 8bit messages is known-broken. The rest pass, but
for very fragile reasons. The next several commits will fix the
known-broken test and make our charset handling robust.
Previously we did this for a single test, but some other proposed
tests ( id:1398105468-14317-3-git-send-email-amdragon@mit.edu ) show
similar breakage when switching renderers.
After yet another variation in objdump output caused this test to fail
(on a Debian port, no less), I decided whatever putative benefit we
get from looking at the object files instead of the library isn't
worth the maintenence headache.
This version uses nm -P. nm -P should be portable, and fixed format.
It purposely doesn't use the -D argument, since that is non-POSIX and
nm on GNU/Linux seems do the right thing without it.
It still won't work out of the box on e.g. Mac OS/X. I think the right
thing to do there is to move some more configuration information into
sh.config.
Previously, if the user ran any subcommand that required a
configuration (e.g., notmuch new) but didn't have a configuration,
notmuch would give the rather un-friendly and un-actionable message
Error reading configuration file .notmuch-config: No such file or directory
Since this condition is expected for new users, this patch adds
specific handling for the file-not-found case to give a message that
is friendly and actionable.
The version number has always been pretty meaningless to the user and
it's about to become even more meaningless with the introduction of
"features". Hopefully, the database will remain on version 3 for some
time to come; however, the introduction of new features over time in
version 3 will necessitate upgrades within version 3. It would be
confusing if we always tell the user they've been "upgraded to version
3". If the user wants to know what's new, they should read the news.
According to RFC2822 References and In-Reply-To headers are supposed
to contain one or more Message-IDs, however older RFC822 allowed
almost any content. When both References and In-Reply-To headers ends
with something else that a Message-ID (see e.g. [1]), the thread
structure presented by notmuch is incorrect. The reason is that
notmuch treats this case as if the email contained no "replyto"
information (see _notmuch_database_link_message_to_parents).
This patch changes the parse_references() function to return the last
valid Message-ID encountered rather than NULL resulting from the last
hunk of text not being the Message-ID.

Previously the build system was generating automatic header
dependencies for test sources, but only smtp-dummy was in SRCS, so
only its dependencies were being included. Add all of the test
sources to SRCS so that the root Makefile.local includes their
dependencies.
This should help new users off to a better start with the addition of
more sensible saved searches and default shortcut keys. Most existing
users have probably customized this variable and won't be affected.
Dump currently only takes the read lock. Xapian can cope with some
changes while maintaining a read snapshot but with more changes it
fails. Currently notmuch just gives a xapian error.
To avoid this we take the write lock when dumping. This prevents other
notmuch processes from modifying the xapian database preventing this
error.
Discussion with Olly on irc indicates that this is currently the best
solution: in xapian trunk there may be better possibilities using
snapshots but they need to make it to a release and propogate out to
users before we can switch approach.
Finally, this breaks one use case: pipelines of the form
notmuch dump | ... | notmuch restore
According to Olly this is already very fragile: it will only work on
small databases. One of the tests relies on this behaviour so fix that
to store the dump rather than use a pipe.
These tests deliver all possible (single-root) four-message threads in
all possible orders and check that notmuch successfully links them
into threads. These tests supersede and replace the previous and much
less thorough "T260-thread-order" tests.
There are two variants of the test: one delivers messages that
reference only their immediate parent and the other delivers messages
that reference all of their parents. The latter test is currently
known-broken.
