Currently Makefile.local contains some machine executable release
checking functionality. This is unnecessarily complex way to do it:
Multiline script functionality is hard to embed -- from Makefile point
of view there is just one line split using backslashes and every line
ends with ';'. It is hard to maintain such "script" when it gets longer.
The embedded script does not fail as robust as separate script; set -eu
could be added to get same level of robustness -- but the provided
Bourne Again Shell (bash) script exceeds this with 'set -o pipefail',
making the script to fail when any of the commands in pipeline fails
(and not just the last one).
Checking for release is done very seldom compared to all other use;
The whole Makefile.local gets simpler and easier to grasp when most
release checking targets are removed.
When release checking is done, the steps are executed sequentially;
nothing is allowed to be skipped due to some satisfied dependency.
On FreeBSD, and probably anywhere else someone installed xapian to
some other prefix, we need to use XAPIAN_LDFLAGS to make the linker can
actually find libxapian.
Before the change, test_expect_equal_file() function treated the first
argument as "actual output file" and the second argument as "expected
output file". When the test fails, the files are copied for later
inspection. The first files was copied to "$testname.output" and the
second file to "$testname.expected". The argument order for
test_expect_equal_file() is often wrong which results in confusing
diff output and incorrectly named files.
The patch solves the issue by changing test_expect_equal_file() to
treat arguments just as two files, without any special properties
(like "actual" and "expected"). The file names for copying is now
based on the given file name: "$testname.$file1" and
"$testname.$file2". E.g. if test_expect_equal_file() is called with
"OUTPUT" and "EXPECTED", the copied files can be named
"emacs.1.OUTPUT" and "emacs.1.EXPECTED".
The down side of this approach is that diff argument order depends on
test_expect_equal_file() argument order. So sometimes we get diff
from expected to actual results, and sometimes the other way around.
But the files are always named correctly.
* emacs/notmuch.el (notmuch-search-mode):
`notmuch-search-tag-all' currently uses the current query string
instead of `notmuch-search-find-thread-id-region-search', which
might cause a race condition.
Previously, the cli parser was a little erratic in what errors it
reported and would fail silently in many cases (for example, when no
argument was passed to an integer option). This was particularly
annoying as the user could not (easily) tell whether the command
failed or just there were no search results.
This patch tries to make the handling consistent and return a helpful
error message in all cases.
The API documentation (notmuch.h) states that the parameter may be NULL,
but the implementation only checked the current element, potentially
dereferencing a NULL pointer in the process.

When the From: field in patch email does not contain 'realname'
field, the patch listing does not show anything as patch sender.
In this case use the part before '@' in mail address as the sender
identification in patch listing.
The behaviour of "emacsclient --eval nil" changed from emacs23 to
emacs24, and in emacs24 it prints 'nil' rather than an empty string.
(format "%S" foo) produces a sexpr form of foo, and is consistent
between the two versions.
The version of message.el in emacs24 omits the charset=us-ascii,
causing the current version of this test to fail. With this patch, we
accept either option. According to RFC 2046, they are semantically
equivalent.
When running emacs tests using emacs 23.1.1 the tests block (until timeout)
when emacs function (notmuch-test-wait) is called.
There is an emacs bug #2930 titled:
23.0.92; `accept-process-output' and `sleep-for' do not run sentinel
It seems this is present in emacs 23.1.
Calling list-processes after accept-process-output seems work around
this problem; in case Emacs version is 23.1 a defadvice is activated
to do just that.
notmuch-test-wait called sleep-for in a loop to wait unconditionally 0.1
seconds while waiting for process to exit.
accept-process-output returns as soon as there is any data available
from process, so using it avoids unnecessary fixed delays.
Both of these functions run process sentinels.
The `notmuch-show-mark-read-tags' lists tags that are to be applied when
message is read. By default, the only value is "-unread" which will remove
the unread tag. Among other uses, this variable can be used to stop
notmuch-show from modifying tags when message is shown (by setting the
variable to an empty list).
0.13.2: `contrib/notmuch-deliver` is in backticks elsewhere in

NEWS entries.

Previously, notmuch-show-previous-message would move to the beginning
of the message before the message containing point. This patch makes
it instead move to the previous message *boundary*. That is, if point
isn't already at the beginning of the message, it moves to the
beginning of the current message. This is consistent with
notmuch-show-next-message, which can be thought of as moving to the
next message boundary. Several people have expressed a preference for
this.
The recent change to use json for notmuch-search.el introduced a bug
in the code for keeping position on refresh. The problem is a
comparison between (plist-get result :thread) and a thread-id returned
by notmuch-search-find-thread-id: the latter is prefixed with
"thread:"
We fix this by adding an option to notmuch-search-find-thread-id to
return the bare thread-id. It appears that notmuch-search-refresh-view
is the only caller of notmuch-search that supplies a thread-id so this
change should be safe (but could theoretically break users .emacs
functions).
The string function in a sprinter may be called with a NULL string
pointer (eg if a header is absent). This causes a segfault. We fix
this by checking for a null pointer in the string functions and update
the sprinter documentation.
At the moment some output when format=text is done directly rather than
via an sprinter: in that case a null pointer is passed to printf or
similar and a "(null)" appears in the output. That behaviour is not
changed in this patch.
Previously, the Emacs byte compiler produced the warning
the function `remove-if-not' might not be defined at runtime.
because we only required cl at compile-time (not runtime). This fixes
this warning by requiring cl at runtime, ensuring that the definition
of remove-if-not is available.
The syntax --output=filename is a smaller change than deleting the
output argument completely, and conceivably useful e.g. when running
notmuch under a debugger.
This should allow users to install notmuch-emacs with only emacs24
installed on their system. For good measure, allow building with
emacs24 as a 4th choice.
Unlike the previous patches, this function is used for all formats.
However, for formats other than the JSON format, the sprinter methods
used by show_message are all no-ops, so this code continues to
function correctly for all of the formats.
Converting show_message eliminates show_null_message in the process,
since this maps directly to an sprinter method.
There are several levels of function calls between where we create the
sprinter and the call to the part formatter in show_message. This
feeds the sprinter through all of them and into the part formatters.
This associates an sprinter constructor with each show format and uses
this to construct the appropriate sprinter. Currently nothing is done
with this sprinter, but the following patches will weave it through
the layers of notmuch show.
This method allows callers to output strings with specific lengths.
It's useful both for strings with embedded NULs (which JSON can
represent, though parser support is apparently spotty), and
non-terminated strings.
Format canonicalization of JSON output is no longer necessary, so
remove it. Value canonicalization (e.g., normalizing thread IDs) is
still necessary, so all of the sanitization functions remain.
Previously, we used a variety of ad-hoc canonicalizations for JSON
output in the test suite, but were ultimately very sensitive to JSON
irrelevancies such as whitespace. This introduces a new test
comparison function, test_expect_equal_json, that first pretty-prints
*both* the actual and expected JSON and the compares the result.
The current implementation of this simply uses Python's json.tool to
perform pretty-printing (with a fallback to the identity function if
parsing fails). However, since the interface it introduces is
semantically high-level, we could swap in other mechanisms in the
future, such as another pretty-printer or something that does not
re-order object keys (if we decide that we care about that).
In general, this patch does not remove the existing ad-hoc
canonicalization because it does no harm. We do have to remove the
newline-after-comma rule from notmuch_json_show_sanitize and
filter_show_json because it results in invalid JSON that cannot be
pretty-printed.
Most of this patch simply replaces test_expect_equal and
test_expect_equal_file with test_expect_equal_json. It changes the
expected JSON in a few places where sanitizers had placed newlines
after commas inside strings.
