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.

When no --output option were given, change default to display senders
only.
When only --count option is given, display senders (in contrary to not
displaying anything).
Document that --count with --sort=**order** is not supported option
combination.
Clean up some whitespace in the documentation.
One test updated to have --output=count without sender nor recipient
output option.
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.

Previously, this was implemented using a horrible GDB script (because
there is no such thing as a non-horrible GDB script). This GDB script
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.
Previously, this was implemented using a horrible GDB script (because
there is no such thing as a non-horrible GDB script). This GDB script
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.
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.
The unread/read changes will use the post-command-hook. test_emacs
does not call the post-command-hook. This adds a notmuch-test-progn
which takes a list of commands as argument and executes them in turn
but runs the post-command-hook after each one.
The caller can batch operations (ie to stop post-command-hook from
being interleaved) by wrapping the batch of operations inside a progn.
We also explicitly run the post-command-hook before getting the output
from a test; this makes sense as this will be a place the user would
be seeing the information.
This adds a 100 termpos gap between all phrases indexed by
_notmuch_message_gen_terms. This fixes a bug where terms from the end
of one header and the beginning of another header could match together
in a single phrase and a separate bug where term positions of
un-prefixed terms overlapped.
This fix only affects newly indexed messages. Messages that are
already indexed won't benefit from this fix without re-indexing, but
the fix won't make things any worse for existing messages.
This adds two known-broken tests and one working test related to the
term positions assigned to terms from different headers or MIME parts.
The first test fails because we don't create a termpos gap between
different headers. The second test fails because we don't adjust
termpos at all when indexing multiple parts.
Previously, we indexed the name and address parts of from/to headers
with two calls to _notmuch_message_gen_terms. In general, this
indicates that these parts are separate phrases. However, because of
an implementation quirk, the two calls to _notmuch_message_gen_terms
generated adjacent term positions for the prefixed terms, which
happens to be the right thing to do in this case, but the wrong thing
to do for all other calls. Furthermore, _notmuch_message_gen_terms
produced potentially overlapping term positions for the un-prefixed
copies of the terms, which is simply wrong.
This change indexes both the name and address in a single call to
_notmuch_message_gen_terms, indicating that they should be part of a
single phrase. This masks the problem with the un-prefixed terms
(fixing the two known-broken tests) and puts us in a position to fix
the unintentionally phrases generated by other calls to
_notmuch_message_gen_terms.
Two of these are currently known-broken. We index the name and
address parts in two separate calls to _notmuch_message_gen_terms.
Currently this has the effect of placing the term positions of the
prefixed terms from the second call right after those of the first
call, but screws up the term positions of the non-prefixed terms.
Two of the search tests for "from" and "to" queries were clearly
trying to search for prefixed phrases, but forgot to shell quote the
phrases. Fix this by quoting them correctly.
