This function uses Xapian's Compactor machinery to compact the notmuch
database. The compacted database is built in a temporary directory and
later moved into place while the original uncompacted database is
preserved.

This improves the function documentation for many interactive
commands, either by improving their documentation string where the
improvement also makes sense for programmatic use or by adding a
'notmuch-doc property where it doesn't.
For nearly all commands that support a prefix argument, this adds a
'notmuch-prefix-doc property to document their prefixed behavior This
omits prefix documentation for a few commands where I thought the
prefixed behavior was too obscure (or too complex to fit in one line).
Traditionally, function documentation strings are intended primarily
for programmers, rather than users. They're written from the
perspective of calling the function, not interactively invoking it.
They're only ever displayed along with the function prototype (and
often refer to argument names). And built-in help commands like
`describe-bindings' show the name of the command, not its
documentation.
The notmuch help system is like `describe-bindings', but tries to be
more user-friendly by displaying documentation strings, rather than
Elisp command names. For most commands, this is fine, but for some
the "programmer description" is inappropriate for interactive use.
This is particularly noticeable for commands that take an optional
prefix argument.
This patch adds support for two symbol properties: notmuch-doc and
notmuch-prefix-doc, which let a command override its interactive
documentation and provide separate documentation for its prefixed
invocation. If notmuch-prefix-doc is present, we add an extra line to
the help giving the prefixed key sequence along with the documentation
for the prefixed command.
Like `notmuch-mua-new-forward-message', this is meant to be invoked
programmatically by something that can provide a reasonable query
string.
In fact, `notmuch-mua-new-reply's interactive specification didn't
match its arguments, so it wouldn't have worked interactively.
`notmuch-mua-new-forward-message' must be called from a buffer
containing a raw RFC2822-formatted message to forward. Hence, it's
intended to be invoked programmatically through something else that
sets up this buffer (like `notmuch-show-forward-message'), not
interactively.
Remove its interactive specification and update the documentation
string to mention the requirements on the current buffer.
We would like to bind prefix-arg RET in search view to "pick show this
thread" (i.e. notmuch-pick-from-search-thread). It is not easy to do
this cleanly from contrib so I have been using M-RET instead.
Temporarily remove this functionality in preparation for entering
mainline and binding to prefix-arg RET.
In pick the user has the option of showing the selected message in a
subpane (the message pane) or in the full frame. This is customisable
using the variable notmuch-pick-show-out. At the moment RET is bound
to the default option and M-RET the other option. This is
messy and involves tricks to make sure the keymap is setup at the
right time.
This changes this to prefix-arg RET for the other option which
simplifies the code and makes things cleaner.
Previously this function used a temporary variable to store the return
value but we can just use the return value of the cond statement
directly.
The only tiny subtlety is that in one case (subject) we need to
slightly reorder the logic to make sure the formatted-field is the
last thing computed.
This function was used for pick entry from hello but isn't needed
anymore. It was modelled on notmuch-hello-search which is now only
used non-interactively (and notmuch-pick does now add to the
recent-search history correctly).
Pick adds some keybindings to keymaps for other modes (for entry to
pick). These quoted the keymaps which appears to be unnecessary and to
rely on the fact that these keymaps have the same entry in the
function cell as the value cell (perhaps for historical reasons?)
Remove these quotes.
Previously the box graphics in the pick view were always attached to
the subject. Make them a field in their own right. We use the
recursive insert to change the default notmuch-pick-result-format so
that the user view does not change. (The subject touches the tree box
graphics but the next column (tags) is still vertically aligned.)
Previously, the message format was fixed: each part had to be a
certain width and either left or right justified. This allows the user
to specify that two parts can be variable width but that combined they
should be some fixed width. We do this by allowing the user to set as
a "field" a list of the normal result-format form which is formatted
and then itself inserted according to the format string specified.
This means all existing formats work but allows more general things
too. This will be used in the next patch to allow the user to specify
where the tree box graphics are drawn but allow, e.g., the total width
of the tree box graphics and subject to be specified.
This moves the actual insertion of message fields up from the field
formatting function into the message insertion function. This will be
useful in the next patch as we can apply further formatting to the
insertion string before inserting.
Dating back to the earliest notmuch-pick we have not printed anything
for the tag field for a message with no tags. This is inconsistent
with search and show both of which print "()". Change pick to be
consistent.
Austin recently introduced a new global keymap. This makes pick use
this global map.
In most cases pick needs to override this global map because
it wants to close the message pane before doing the action. However,
this documents the over-rides and makes it less likely that the pick
bindings will get out of sync with the main bindings.
pick was meant to use the same mini-buffer history but this failed
because the interactive definition took place before the use search
mini-buffer history part. Remove the interactive prompt to ensure the
correct history is used.
In the recent changes for search order handling the default-value of
notmuch-search-oldest-first was used. However, default-value needs a
symbol so the symbol-name needs to be quoted.
This missing quote was causing strange sort-orders in some cases.
As explained by Jeffrey Stedfast, the author of GMime, quoted in [1]:

Some common broken RFC 2047 encodings that we currently let gmime
parse strictly. We could tell gmime to be forgiving in what it accepts
as RFC 2047 encoding, making these tests pass.
The only user-visible effect of this should be that "G" now works in
show mode (previously it was unbound for no apparent reason).
This shared keymap gives us one place to put global commands, which
both forces us to think about what commands should be global, and
ensures their bindings can't diverge (like the missing "G" in show).
This converts notmuch-help to use map-keymap for all keymap traversal.
This generally cleans up and simplifies construction of keymap
documentation, and also makes notmuch-help support anything that can
be in a keymap, including more esoteric stuff like multiple
inheritance.
This unifies the various refresh and poll-and-refresh functions we
have for different modes. Now all modes bind "=" and "G" (except
show, which doesn't bind "G" for some reason) to
`notmuch-refresh-this-buffer' and
`notmuch-poll-and-refresh-this-buffer', respectively.
Since notmuch-hello doesn't need this any more, we can remove this
hack. This also eliminates `notmuch-search-quit', so now all modes
bind "q" to `notmuch-kill-this-buffer'.
Since there is now no difference between notmuch-hello-search and
notmuch-search when called interactively, bind "s" to notmuch-search
in notmuch-hello-mode-map. Now all modes bind "s" this way.
Previously, we refreshed hello when the user quit a search that was
started from hello. This is fine assuming purely stack-oriented
buffer use, but is quite fragile and requires hacks to search.
This replaces that logic with a new approach that refreshes hello
whenever the user switches to the hello buffer, regardless of how this
happens.
Previously, if `notmuch-search' was called interactively (bound to "s"
in search and show, but not hello), it would always use newest-first.
However, `notmuch-hello-search' (bound to "s" in hello) and
`notmuch-hello-widget-search` would call it with the user-configured
sort order. This inconsistency seems unintentional, so change
`notmuch-search' to use the user-configured sort order when called
interactively.
When text/html parts include images as multipart/related and the
text/plain alternative is used these images can be completely hidden
with no easy way to access them or even find out that they are there.
Make notmuch-show-insert-part-multipart/related add buttons for all
parts, the first one visible the rest hidden.
The lazy part handler had a bug that it allowed the button to be
toggled to be specified. During toggling it needs to save and restore
the text-properties for the button but it actually saved the text
properties at point rather than from the button.
In almost all cases this didn't matter as as point had the same text
properties as the button. However, it is a bug and did cause incorrect
behaviour in some cases: see id:87txhz14z6.fsf@qmul.ac.uk for details.
This patch fixes three issues with "notmuch-mutt tag":
1. The message_id was not shell quoted.
Thanks to Jason Miller for the bug report and patch.
2. The tags passed into tag_action() were not being properly quoted.
The "join before shell_quote" was combining multiple tags into a
single argument to notmuch tag: '+one -two -three' instead of
'+one' '-two' '-three'.
3. A "--" was added between the tags and search-term as shown in the
current notmuch-tag man page.
Thanks to Tomi Ollila for suggesting the simple fix of using
the list form of system(), which bypasses the shell.
When 'xpg_echo' bash shell option is unset (usually the default)
echo builtin does not expand backslash-escape sequences by default
(i.e. '\n' is echoed as '\n' instead of newline). Not all bash
installations have this feature we depend on activated by default.
Note that the feature is bash (and GNU /bin/echo) specific. It is used
as it is convenient. If portability is needed (elsewhere) use printf(1)
(also often available as a shell builtin).
Change notmuch-mutt to use the new --duplicate=1 flag for duplicate
removal. This will remove duplicates based on message-id at the
notmuch level. Previously we were using fdupes or generating sha sums
after the search.
This version will be faster, but will enable the possibility of hiding
search results due to accidental/malicious duplicate message-ids.
When composing a reply, notmuch-mua-reply attempts to cite the
the original message by inserting it before the user signature, if
one is present. The existing method used to search the signature
separator backward from the end of the buffer and then move one
line up. In case of variable `message-signature-insert-empty-line'
being nil this caused point to go to the beginning of
'--text follows this line--'
separator line, and citation was inserted there.
This change checks the value of `message-signature-insert-empty-line'
and doesn't move point if that is nil. Additional narrowing to
the body region ensures that point never goes to the separator line
(or beyond).
`message-signature-setup-hook' or `message-setup-hook' may already have
added some other content to the message body, therefore using simply
(message-goto-body) to move point to the beginning of body might lead
to unexpected results.
Original patch from "Geoffrey H. Ferrari", continued with iterations
from Jani and Mark.
If any of the tests in our test system is not passing the execution
of the test suite completes with nonzero exit value.
It is better to rely on the exit value of the test system instead
of some arbitrary strings in test output (or use both).
In reply, insert quotable parts using notmuch-show-insert-bodypart
instead of calling notmuch-mm-display-part-inline directly to render
the quoted parts as they are rendered in show view.
We use a temp buffer to not leak text properties from the show
renderer into the reply. This way we also don't need to worry about
narrowing or point placement. Credits to Mark Walters
<markwalters1009@gmail.com> and Austin Clements <amdragon@MIT.EDU> for
getting this part straight.
The notable change is that replies to text/calendar parts quote the
pretty printed output of icalendar-import-buffer rather than the ugly
raw vcalendar.
notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags() unconditionally moves messages from
maildir directory "new/" to maildir directory "cur/", which makes messages lose
their "new" status in the MUA. However some users want to keep this "new"
status after, for instance, an auto-tagging of new messages.
However, as Austin mentioned and according to the maildir specification,
messages living in "new/" are not allowed to have flags, even if mutt allows it
to happen. For this reason, this patch prevents moving messages from "new/" to
"cur/", only if no flags have to be changed. It's hopefully enough to satisfy
mutt (and maybe other MUAs showing the "new" status) users checking the "new"
status.

update insert tests for new maildir synchronization rules
As of id:1355952747-27350-4-git-send-email-sojkam1@fel.cvut.cz
we are more conservative about moving messages from ./new to ./cur.
This updates the insert tests to match
As mentioned by Jani Nikula in id:87vcccp4y3.fsf@nikula.org, some cases
of maildir synchronization are not covered by our tests. Let's add the
missing tests.
Some MUA's like mutt show the difference between "new" emails living in maildir
directory new/, and "old" emails living in maildir directory cur/. However
notmuch tag unconditionally moves selected messages from new/ to cur/, even if
no maildir synchronized tag is changed.
While maildir specification forbids messages with tags living in new/, there is
no need to move messages to cur/ when no maildir synchronized tag is changed.
Thus notmuch can remain transparent with respect to other MUA's.
