When running the test suite without building first, it is desirable to
have the tests consider these variables being undefined as equivalent
to the feature not being present, and in particular for the tests not
to generate errors.
According to my reading of RFC5322, there is an obsolete syntax for
Message-Id which permits folding whitespace (i.e. to be removed /
ignored by parsers). In [1] Paul Wise observed that notmuch removed
whitespace on indexing, but does not do any corresponding
normalization of queries. Mark the latter as a bug by adding a failing
test.

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:

Second, some queries would make use of Xapian::Query::MatchAll
(lib/regexp-fields.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
message:

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.
Amended by db: Copy docstring to manual and edit for presentation. Add
two tests. Fix typo "wether".
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.

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.

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.
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.
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.
Essentially we just need to arrange to pass the right --duplicate
argument to notmuch reply.
As a side-effect, correct the previously unused value of EXPECTED in
T453-emacs-reply.sh.
We want the reply used to match that shown e.g. in the emacs
interface. As a first step provide that functionality on the command
line.
Schema does not need updating as the duplicate key was already
present (with a constant value of 1).
This new command allows the user to interactively choose a different
duplicate (file) to display for a given message in
notmuch-show-mode. Since both tree and unthreaded view use
notmuch-show-mode, this provides the same facility there.
This introduces a new mandatory key for message structures, namely
"duplicate". Per convention in devel/schemata this does _not_ increase
the format version. This means that clients are responsible for
checking that it exists, and not crashing if it does not.
The main functional change is teaching mime_node_open to understand a
'duplicate' argument.
Support for --duplicate in notmuch-reply would make sense, but we
defer it to a later commit.
Add command line argument --duplicate, analogous with that already
supported for notmuch-search.
Use of a seperate function for _get_filename is mainly a form of
documentation at this point.
md5sum is of course a weak hash, but it is good enough for
this (non-adversarial) test suite use.
This parameter was originally introduced to hide large attachements
that happened to be text/plain. From a performance point of view,
there is no reason not to also hide large message bodies.
This leverages the machinery already there to insert buttons for
attachments.
A potential use-case is browsing the top layers of the tree to decide
which of the lower subtrees to read.
The original nmbug format (now called version 0) creates 1
subdirectory of 'tags/' per message. This causes problems for more
than (roughly) 100k messages.
Version 1 introduces 2 layers of hashed directories. This scheme was
chose to balance the number of subdirectories with the number of extra
directories (and git objects) created via hashing.
This should be upward compatible in the sense that old repositories
will continue to work with the updated notmuch-git.
