Previously, the term escaper used a blacklist of characters that
needed escaping. This blacklist turned out to be somewhat incomplete;
for example, it did not contain non-whitespace ASCII control
characters or Unicode "fancy quotes", both of which do require the
term to be escaped.
Switch to a whitelist of characters that are definitely safe to leave
unquoted. This fixes the broken test introduced by the previous
patch.
The current term escaper gets most of these right, but fails to escape
things containing Unicode "fancy quotes" or things containing
non-whitespace control characters.
I still have one machine with old enough Xapian to not have compaction
support. Make the tests check for unsupported compact operation when
compact is not available.
The subtle part is adding .rst and .py files to vpath so they can be
used as dependencies without prefixing with $(srcdir)
We also change the interface to mkbuildeps.py: rather than getting the
containing directory from the conf file path, we go the other way.
This uses the recent functionality to show the tag changes in the tree
buffer. Currently this is only used to show changes the tree buffer
makes itself: i.e., it does not make display any changes reflecting
tagging done by other notmuch-buffers.
This uses the recent functionality to show the tag changes in the
search buffer. Currently this is only used to show changes the search
buffer makes itself: i.e., it does not make display any changes
reflecting tagging done by other notmuch-buffers.
This allows (and requires) the original-tags to be passed along with
the current-tags to be passed to notmuch-tag-format-tags. This allows
the tag formatting to show added and deleted tags.By default a removed
tag is displayed with strike-through in red (if strike-through is not
available, eg on a terminal, inverse video is used instead) and an
added tag is displayed underlined in green.
If the caller does not wish to use the new feature it can pass
current-tags for both arguments and, at this point, we do exactly that
in the three callers of this function.
Note, we cannot tidily allow original-tags to be optional because we would
need to distinguish nil meaning "we are not specifying original-tags"
from nil meaning there were no original-tags (an empty list).
We use this in subsequent patches to make it clear when a message was
unread when you first loaded a show buffer (previously the unread tag
could be removed before a user realised that it had been unread).
The code adds into the existing tag formatting code. The user can
specify exactly how a tag should be displayed normally, when deleted,
or when added.
Since the formatting code matches regexps a user can match all deleted
tags with a ".*" in notmuch-tag-deleted-formats. For example setting
notmuch-tag-deleted-formats to '((".*" nil)) tells notmuch not to show
deleted tags at all.
All the variables are customizable; however, more complicated cases
like changing the face depending on the type of display will require
custom lisp.
Currently this overrides notmuch-tag-deleted-formats for the tests
setting it to '((".*" nil)) so that they get removed from the display
and, thus, all tests still pass.
Add customize options for deleted/added tag formats. These are not
used yet but will be later in the series.
We switch to using `notmuch-apply-face' rather than `propertize' in
the defcustom for faces so that the faces for deleted/added tags add
to the default face attributes for the tag.
We special case deleting the unread tag as that tag is a strong visual
cue and we don't need that cue when we are just saying it used to be
unread. Thus, we revert to the normal tag face with strikethough for
deleted unread tags.
We will re-use the customize option for format-tags for formattting
deleted tags to added tags in the next patch so split it into a
widget. There should be no functional change.
This modifies `notmuch-tag-format-tag' to treat the keys of
`notmuch-tag-formats' as (anchored) regexps, rather than literal
strings. This is clearly more flexible, as it allows for prefix
matching, defining a fallback format, etc. This may cause compatibility
problems if people have customized `notmuch-tag-formats' to match tags
that contain regexp specials, but this seems unlikely.
Regular expression matching has quite a performance hit over string
lookup, so this also introduces a simple cache from exact tags to
formatted strings. The number of unique tags is likely to be quite
small, so this cache should have a high hit rate. In addition to
eliminating the regexp lookup in the common case, this cache stores
fully formatted tags, eliminating the repeated evaluation of potentially
expensive, user-specified formatting code. This makes regexp lookup at
least as fast as assoc for unformatted tags (e.g., inbox) and *faster*
than the current code for formatted tags (e.g., unread):
inbox (usec) unread (usec)
assoc: 0.4 2.8
regexp: 3.2 7.2
regexp+caching: 0.4 0.4
(Though even at 7.2 usec, tag formatting is not our top bottleneck.)
This cache must be explicitly cleared to keep it coherent, so this adds
the appropriate clearing calls.
This combines our two face combining functions into one, easy to use
function with a much shorter name: `notmuch-apply-face'. This
function takes the full set of arguments that
`notmuch-combine-face-text-property' took, but takes them in a more
convenient order and provides smarter defaults that make the function
easy to use on both strings and buffers.
Make nmbug-status more generally usable outside of nmbug by not
hardcoding notmuch related things.
This lets anyone publish html search views to mailing list messages
with a custom config file, independent of nmbug.
Because sphinx-build does not provide a convenient way of listing
which builders exist, and some people actually have pre 1.0 sphinx, we
try loading a relevant python module.
Currently the assumption is that no python in path -> no sphinx-build
in path.
It turns out there was a reason the old man pages were stored in a man
compatible hierarchy, namely so that we could run man on them before
installing.
Hardcode doc build location into test suite. This isn't ideal, but
let's unbreak the test suite for now.
This helps avoid build artifacts (namely, nroff and gzipped-nroff man
pages) owned by root.
The variables allow choosing which generator to use for the man page.
These will be hooked to configure in a following commit.
Previously, make_boolean_term did not quote empty boolean terms or
boolean terms that started with '('. These cases are incompatible
with Xapian: empty terms cannot be omitted, and boolean terms that
start with '(' trigger an alternate term quoting syntax.
Fix this by quoting empty terms and terms that contain '('.
It seems that between version 1.26 and 1.27 of gnu tar, directories to
be extracted read with --files-from are no longer recursively extacted.
This patch puts them on the command line instead.
The checksum file is used by the test infrastructure to verify the downloaded
test database is the one we had in mind. Note that this test is
rather strict, and the the checksum file needs to be recommitted when
the database is regenerated.
add a pattern .gitignore to ignore the actual databases
Add script to generate notmuch test databases using specified versions
of notmuch. This is useful for generating material for database
upgrade tests.
This reuses the test infrastructure to have a sandbox environment for
notmuch new etc.
Test the upgrade from probabilistic to boolean folder: terms, and
addition of path: terms.
The test depends on the pre-built test corpus and database tarball and
checksum file being in place. If it's not, the test is skipped. The
mechanism to fetch the test database will be added later.
At the time of writing, a working test database and checksum file is
available at
http://notmuchmail.org/releases/test-databases/
It has been noted that some non-GNU environments make lack
sha256sum. We leave this portability issue for a followup patch.
In xapian terms, convert folder: prefix from probabilistic to boolean
prefix, matching the paths, relative from the maildir root, of the
message files, ignoring the maildir new and cur leaf directories.
folder:foo matches all message files in foo, foo/new, and foo/cur.
folder:foo/new does *not* match message files in foo/new.
folder:"" matches all message files in the top level maildir and its
new and cur subdirectories.
This change constitutes a database change: bump the database version
and add database upgrade support for folder: terms. The upgrade also
adds path: terms.
Finally, fix the folder search test for literal folder: search, as
some of the folder: matching capabilities are lost in the
probabilistic to boolean prefix change.
The path: prefix is a literal boolean prefix matching the paths,
relative from the maildir root, of the message files.
path:foo matches all message files in foo (but not in foo/new or
foo/cur).
path:foo/new matches all message files in foo/new.
path:"" matches all message files in the top level maildir.
path:foo/** matches all message files in foo and recursively in all
subdirectories of foo.
path:** matches all message files recursively, i.e. all messages.
We will need this for improved folder search tests, but having some
folders should exercise our code paths better anyway.
Modify the relevant test accordingly to make it pass.
This reorganization triggers a bug in the test suite, namely that it
expects the output of --output=files to be in a certain order. So we
add the fix for that into the same commit.
This mainly involves sorting, although the case --duplicate=$n
requires more subtlety.
The python script mkdocdeps.py is used to import the list of man pages
from the sphinx configuration to make.
This will delete the (release only) target update-man-versions. This
will be replaced in a followup commit.
This is the output from sphinx-quickstart, massaged a bit, along with
our existing man pages converted to rst.
A skeleton notmuch-emacs manual is also included. It is not suitable
for end user use yet.
Sanitize tabs and newlines to spaces rather than question marks in
--output=summary --format=text output.
This will also hide any difference in unfolding a header that has been
folded with a tab. Our own header parser replaces tabs with spaces,
while gmime would retain the tab.
The printf builtin "%(fmt)T" specifier (which allows time values
to use strftime-like formatting) is introduced in bash 4.2.
Trying to execute this in pre-4.2 bash will fail -- and if this
happens execute the fallback piece of perl code to do the same thing.
The test names assigned to NOTMUCH_SKIP_TESTS variable can now be given
with or without the Tddd- prefix for tester convenience:
The test name without Tddd -prefix stays constant even when test filenames
are renumbered.
The test name with Tddd -prefix is printed out when tests run.
According the semantics of make, the expansion of $(dir) in recipes
uses dynamic scope, i.e. the value at the time the recipe is run. This
means if test/Makefile.local is not the last sub-makefile included,
all heck breaks loose.
