In fact some of these features are available in Xapian 1.3.x development
releases, but these are not really widely packaged. In any case, the
experts who are using development releases of Xapian can figure that
out.
The two new faces (notmuch-search-flagged-face and
notmuch-search-unread-face) make it easier to find the relevant face by
customizing notmuch-faces. I plan to do the same to the other alists of
faces found elsewhere.
Currently, http://packages.python.org/notmuch/ goes through a series
of redirections and ends up pointing to readthedocs. Since we're
using readthedocs directly anyway, just point to it directly.
readthedocs are also now sensibly using a separate domain
(readthedocs.io) for their hosted documentation as distinct from their
own domain (readthedocs.org), so use the correct tld.
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
A non-technical introduction for users who read NEWS to have better
chance to find ./devel/notmuch-emacs-mua when they test or experiment
with notmuch emacs MUA next time.
These are the same tool; the nmbug-status text just landed before the
name change. We can also drop the message-url details from NEWS,
since they're already in the man page.
For example:
"query": ["tag:a", "tag:b or tag:c"]
is now converted to:
( tag:a ) and ( tag:b or tag:c )
instead of the old:
tag:a and tag:b or tag:c
This helps us avoid confusion due to Xapian's higher-precedence AND
[1], where the old query would be interpreted as:
( tag:a and tag:b ) or tag:c
[1]: http://xapian.org/docs/queryparser.html
This adds NEWS items for
the new limit/filter function in notmuch-show,
the saved-search option for tree view,
the binding S to run the current tree-view search in notmuch-search,
the increase in max text part size
the bugfix for replying to encrypted messages from tree view
Trailing dots were removed from 3 NEWS items so that those appear in
same level as surrounding "heading" lines in generated wiki page.
One trailing dot was added to nmbug-status item so it appears as normal
text in generated wiki page. `nmbug-status` was put in backticks so it
looks the same as in older nmbug-status news text.
It's becoming a maintenance burden to do anything things with the
crypto glue code twice, once for 2.4 and once for 2.6. I don't have
any 2.4 version available to test on my development machine anymore,
so the 2.4 specific code paths are likely not very well tested.
News for notmuch-emacs-version usage in User-Agent header and
rename of function notmuch-version to notmuch-cli-version.
While at it, made some minor (consistency) punctuation changes
to make news to wiki conversion work as expected.
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.
When loading configs from Git, the bare branch name (without a
refs/heads/ prefix or similar) matches all branches of that name
(including remote-tracking branches):
.nmbug $ git show-ref config
48f3bbf1d1492e5f3d2f01de6ea79a30d3840f20 refs/heads/config
48f3bbf1d1492e5f3d2f01de6ea79a30d3840f20 refs/remotes/origin/config
4b6dbd9ffd152e7476f5101eff26747f34497cee refs/remotes/wking/config
Instead of relying on the ordering of the matching references, use
--heads to ensure we only match local branches.
Adds new entry to the NEWS file, and updates the search terms section
of the man page. The search terms section needs to be updated again
once the new section in the documentation covering probablistic terms
has been committed.
notmuch-deliver has no commits for about 2.5 years. notmuch-insert has
all the features that deliver does, and as far as I understand the
error handling has now caught up.
News for
- cli: add support for notmuch search --duplicate=N with --output=messages
- cli/insert: add post-insert hook
- cli/insert: require succesful message indexing for success statu
It blows things up by a factor of six or so, so it's worth giving
people a heads up. It won't effect e.g. Debian, that already builds
with -g and then strips.
For more details, see the commit message for 7f2cb3be (nmbug:
Translate to Python, 2014-10-03). I realized while writing this that
the 7f2cb3be commit message has:
* 'nmbug log' now execs 'git log', as there's no need to keep the
Python process around once we've launched Git there.
But we dropped that exec in favor of the subprocess approach between
v3 and v4, I just forgot to update the commit message [1].

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.notmuch.general/19007
This improves the description of the fix, fixes some typos, and
changes "(re)-indexed" to "indexed" because we have no particular
notion of "re-indexing" a message.
Also bump the python bindings version, the NEWS version and the Debian
version.
Since the changelog is (slightly dubiously) metadata, we have to
change it to upload a release candidate.
Wildcard matching was a feature of the probabilistic prefix, and we no
longer have it for the boolean prefix. Also note that top-level folder
can now be searched.
The changes landed with c200167 (nmbug: Add 'clone' and replace
FETCH_HEAD with @{upstream}, 2014-03-09).
The preferred markup language for NEWS seems to be Markdown, which is
parsed by devel/news2wiki.pl into Markdown chunks for rendering by
ikiwiki [1].

If the user has unsorted or alphabetically sorted saved-searches these
should continue to work. If they have some custom lisp sort function
then it will need updating to work with the new saved-sort
format. Document this, and how the updating should be done.
Also roll in fixes for the markdown in the first part of the NEWS
suggested by Tomi: change `just work' to *just work* and removed
periods from the end of subtitle lines.
The important point is that the changed search variable is not forward
compatible (it *is* backwards compatible): that is previous version
of notmuch-emacs will be unusable with a new style
notmuch-saved-search variable.
Roll (one last?) release candidate because of Austin's
LIBNOTMUCH_VERSION changes.
Atomically bump the manually (NEWS, debian/changelog) and
automatically (everywhere else) updated places version is mentioned.

commit 5c19eb46a9
Author: Jani Nikula <jani@nikula.org>
Date: Sun Sep 1 20:59:53 2013 +0300
emacs: insert quotable parts in reply as they are displayed in show view
The 0.16 NEWS grew chronologically during development, and as a result
wound up in a particularly odd order. This rearranges it to put the
most user-visible news first. Roughly: new features, modified
behavior, bug fixes, then deprecation, with related items grouped.
This does not modify the text of any of the news.
While looked good on paper, its attempted use caused confusion, complexity,
and potential for information leak when passed through wrapper scripts.
For slimmer code and to lessen demand for maintenance/support the set of
commits which added top level --stderr= option is now reverted.
As discussed in id:871udhcmks.fsf@zancas.localnet, notmuch-vim doesn't
really meet the standards of the CLI, emacs interface, or python
bindings in terms of being well maintained.
The commands are long deprecated, so removal is probably overdue. The
real motivation is to simplify argument handling for notmuch so that
we can migrate to the common argument parsing framework.
Date range search may be implemented as a library change, but it's an
important user-facing change that affects all notmuch usage. Tag name
restrictions aren't as important, but they affect both the CLI
interface and the Emacs interface.
Added the following Emacs Interface NEWS entries:
Catch errors bodypart insertions may throw,
Improved text/calendar content handling and
Disabled coding conversions when reading in
`with-current-notmuch-show-message`.
Thanks to Austin and David for content improvements.
notmuch show --format json now includes Bcc and Reply-To headers of
the message. Mention that in NEWS.
(Heavily modified version of text originally from Michal Nazarewicz.)
