We pre-parse into a list of compiled regular expressions to avoid
calling regexc on the hot (indexing) path. As explained in the code
comment, this cannot be done lazily with reasonable error reporting,
at least not without touching a lot of the code in index.cc.
This replaces two instances of Xapian::Query::MatchAll with the
equivalent but thread-safe alternative Xapian::Query(std::string()).
Xapian::Query::MatchAll maintains an internal pointer to a refcounted
Xapian::Internal::QueryTerm.
None of this is thread-safe but that wouldn't be an issue if
Xapian::Query::MatchAll wasn't static. Because it's static, the
refcounting goes awry when Notmuch is called from multiple threads.
This is actually documented by Xapian:
4715de3a9f/xapian-core/include/xapian/query.h (L65)
While static, Xapian::Query::MatchNothing is safe because it doesn't
maintain an internal object and as such, doesn't use references.
Two best-effort tests making use of TSan were added to showcase the
issue (I couldn't figure out a way to deterministically reproduce it
without making an unmaintainable mess).
First, when two databases are created in parallel, a query that uses
Xapian::Query::MatchAll is made (lib/query.cc), resulting in the
following backtrace on a segfault:

Printing Xapian::Query::MatchAll->internal.px->_refs in these
circumstances can help quickly identifying this scenario.
This is motivated by some test frameworks (like Rust's Cargo) that
runs unit tests in parallel and would easily encounter this issue,
unless client code gates every call to Notmuch behind a lock.
This is what can be expected from the tests when they fail:

_notmuch_message_remove_all_properties wasn't syncing the message back
to the database but was still invalidating the metadata, giving the
impression the properties had actually been removed.
Also move the metadata invalidation to _notmuch_message_remove_terms
to be closer to what's done in _notmuch_message_modify_property and
_notmuch_message_remove_term.
notmuch_message_remove_all_properties should have removed the
testkey1 = testvalue1
property but hasn't. Delay the execution of the corresponding test
to avoid updating a few tests that actually relied on the broken
behavior.
These two functions don't fail gracefully when editing a removed

The other functions appear to be safe.
Previously we just crashed with an internal error. With this change,
the caller can handle it better. Update notmuch-new so that it doesn't
crash with "unknown error code" because of this change.
With this mode, one can fold trees in the notmuch-tree buffer as if
they were outlines, using all the commands provided by
outline-minor-mode. We also define a couple of movement commands
that, optional, will ensure that only the thread around point is
unfolded.
The implementation is based on registering a :level property in the
messages p-list, that is then used by outline-minor-mode to to
recognise headers.

two tests. Fix typo "wether".
GnuPG upstream has supported pkg-config since gpgme version 1.13 and
gpg-error 1.33, and now prefers the use of pkg-config by default,
instead of relying on gpg-error-config and gpgme-config.
As of libgpg-error 1.46, upstream deliberately does not ship
gpg-error-config by default. As of gpgme 1.18.0, upstream does not
ship gpgme-config if gpg-error-config is also not present.
Both of these versions of upstream libraries are in debian unstable
now. To the extent that notmuch is dependent on GnuPG, it should
follow GnuPG upstream's lead.

The call to delete_document can throw exceptions (and can happen in
practice [1]), so catch the exception and extract the error
message. As a side effect, also move the call to _n_m_has_term inside
the try/catch. This should not change anything as that function
already traps any Xapian exceptions.

In [1], Thomas Schneider reported an uncaught Xapian exception when
running out of disk space. We generate the same exception via database
corruption.

We use notmuch search in two places in notmuch-git.py: to find which
tags have a given prefix, and to see if message with given id exists
locally. In both cases we do not want the presence of exclude tags
(e.g. deleted) to change the results.
`notmuch search` behaves differently depending on the output option: It
either outputs information pertaining to all threads with matching
messages (summary, threads) or to all matching messages (messages,
files, tags). The man page refres solely to the former in the main
description.
Help the user by clearly marking `summary` as the default output option.

Although this has more steps than the previous regular expression
search and replace, it should be more robust against changes in the
headerline format, such as the inclusion of duplicate numbers (which
broke the previous version).
OTHER-HEADERS are expected to be passed as strings, to match the
implementation of `compose-mail'. But the "From" header is currently
expected to be passed as a symbol. Instead the "From" header can be
safely added after converting all the headers to symbols.
notmuch search does not output header values. However, when browsing
through a large email corpus, it can be time saving to be able to
paginate without running notmuch show for each message/thread.
Add --offset and --limit options to notmuch show. This is inspired from
commit 796b629c3b ("cli: add options --offset and --limit to notmuch
search").
Update man page, shell completion and add a test case to ensure it works
as expected.

notmuch-search-insert-authors now sets the evaporate property on the
ellipsis overlays. Emacs will delete them when the buffer contents
are zeroed out, which happens with `notmuch-refresh-buffer`. This
prevents them from being collapsed to zero-width overlays in position
1. See Emacs bug#58479. An upcoming change in Emacs will make these
dangling overlays visible to the user.
...and bind these to "E" in their respective keymaps.
Expected to be called interactively, then using read-from-minibuffer
with current search string as initial contents for editing.
(Noninteractive use makes little sense, but is supported.)
With this one can expand (as an opposite to limit) their
query and have e.g. (some of their) saved searches as search
"templates".
While at it, removed `(defvar notmuch-search-query-string)` from
notmuch-tree.el; it is unused (`notmuch-tree-basic-query` is used
instead).
Thanks to Jose Antonio Ortega Ruiz for his example for notmuch-tree
code, and better interactive use.
This replaces the old OpenPGPv4 key that is used in the test suite
with a more modern OpenPGPv4 key. All cryptographic artifacts in the
test suite are updated accordingly.
Having old cryptographic artifacts in the test suite presents a
problem once the old algorithms are rejected by contemporary
implementations.
For reference, this is the old key.

The general problem of indexing attachments requires some help to turn
things into text, but (most?) text/* should be doable internally,
possibly with optimizations as for the text/html case.
The corpus is not really suitable for general indexing test since the
sole message is ignored (and will most likely continue to be ignored)
by notmuch-new.
By sharing the existing logic used by the sexp query parser, this
allows negative lastmod revisions to be interpreted as relative to the
most recent revision.
This will permit the re-use of the same logic in the infix query
parser. The location of the shared code in the infix side is for
consistency with the other shared parsing logic. It will make more
sense when a Xapian field processor is added for the lastmod prefix.
There is some duplication of code here, but not all of the locations
valid to find a database make sense to create. Furthermore we nead two
passes, so the control flow in _choose_database_path would get a bit
convoluted.
This makes the error handling available for re-use. Using
g_mkdir_with_parents also handles the case of a pre-existing
directory. This introduces new functionality, namely creating the
parent directories, which will be useful for creating directories like
'.local/share/notmuch/default'.
The failing "create database" test replicates a bug reported by Sean
Whitton [1]. The other two failures also look related to the database
being (re)created in the wrong place.
[1]: id:87y1wqkw13.fsf@athena.silentflame.com.
The existing database creation (via add_email_corpus) was always done
in the traditional configuration. The use of xapian-metadata is just
to portably ensure that there is a database created where we expect
there to be.
This enables auto-completion of commands, something which plain
read-string does not do. It's otherwise a drop-in
replacement. According to `C-h f`, read-shell-command was introduced
in Emacs 23.1 or earlier.
