This reproduces the bug reported at [1]. The second test hints at the
solution, making reply return OwnedMessage objects.

This will correct the current use of an undefined variable when
setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH in doc/Makefile.local
It is tempting to try to replace the use of test/export-dirs.sh, but
this is not as simple as it looks, as NOTMUCH_BUILDDIR is used to
locate sh.config, so probably cannot also sensibly be used to define
it.
It makes perfect sense for users to want to pre-create .notmuch,
e.g. to install hooks, so we should handle the case of a .notmuch
directory without an actual xapian database more gracefully.
`notmuch new' should go ahead and create the xapian database if it is
missing, even in the case where the parent .notmuch (or equivalent)
directory exists.
Since release 0.32, libnotmuch provides searching for database and
configuration paths. This commit changes the python module notmuch2 to
use those facilities.
This fixes the bug reported in [1], along with a couple of the
deprecation warnings in the python bindings.
Database.default_path is deprecated, since it no longer faithfully
reflects what libnotmuch is doing, and it is also no longer used in
the bindings themselves.
This commit choose the default of config=CONFIG.EMPTY (equivalent to
passing "" to notmuch_database_open_with_config). This makes the
change upward compatible API-wise (at least as far as the test suite
verifies), but changing the default to CONFIG.SEARCH would probably be
more convenient for bindings users.

If the user passed a path, and we opened it, then we consider that
definitive definition of "database.path". This makes libnotmuch
respond more gracefully to certain erroneous combinations of
NOTMUCH_CONFIG settings and config file contents.
This is arguably user error: having configuration file with bad
settings in it (and/or having a bad NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment
variable). On the other hand returning a different path than was
actually opened is definitely a bug.
Previously the python-cffi bindings either failed to build, or built
for the wrong module by using the installed module.
The fix requires correction the module path, building the bindings
before docs, and helping python find the built libnotmuch.

This is a bit different than n_d_{open,create}_with_config, since
there are several non-zero status codes where we do want to return a
non-NULL database structure.
This code previously relied on _finish_open to free the notmuch struct
on errors (except for the case of database == NULL, which was a
potential double free). When we removed those frees from _finish_open,
we introduced a (small) memory leak.
In this commit, fix the memory leak, and harmonize the on-error
behaviour with n_d_open_with_config.
During refactoring for 0.32, the code that set notmuch=NULL on various
errors was moved into _finish_open. This meant that the the code which
relied on that to set *database to NULL on error was no longer
correct. It also introduced a potential double free, since the notmuch
struct was deallocated inside _finish_open (via n_d_destroy).
In this commit we revert to "allocator frees", and leave any cleanup
to the caller of _finish_open. This allows us to get back the
behaviour of setting *database to NULL with a small change. Other
callers of _finish_open will need free notmuch on errors.
The documentation claims that the database will be set to NULL in this
case, but it is currently not happening. Based on a reproducer [1]
from Austin Ray.

In order to make it easier to keep the whitespace consistent in the
configure script, use the same style defined in devel/STYLE for
C/C++.
Specifically, a line should begin with zero or more tabs followed
by fewer than eight spaces.
Presumably this will be no more difficult for people editing configure
than for people editing the C and C++ code.
'check-notmuch-commit' is an updated version of a script I have been
using (although not always as consistently as I should) before sending
patches to the list.
Although it requires a bit more tooling, encouraging people to use
check-notmuch-commit might reduce the number of round trips to the
list for style nitpicks.
As discussed at [1] we have received reports that the implicit check
using cffi.FFI().verify() is not reliable in all environments. Since
we already use pkg-config, and the python dev package should include a
.pc file [2], add an extra check using pkg-config. On at least
Debian, we have to know which version of python dev files with are
looking for, so calculate that first.
