When "notmuch show" was recently modified to not show an entire thread by default, it also lost all capability to properly order the messages in a thread and to print their proper depth. For example, the command: notmuch show thread:6d5e3e276461188c5778c9f219f63782 had dramatically different output than: notmuch show --entire-thread thread:6d5e3e276461188c5778c9f219f63782 even though both commands were selecting and displaying the same set of messages. The first command would diplay them "flat", (all with depth:0), and in strict date order; while the second command would display them "nested" (with depth based on threading), and in thread order. We now fix "notmuch show" without the --entire-thread option to also display nested and thread-ordered messages. If some messages in the thread are not included in the displayed results, then they are not counted when computing depth values. |

Notmuch - thread-based email index, search and tagging.
Notmuch is a system for indexing, searching, reading, and tagging
large collections of email messages. It uses the Xapian library to
provide fast, full-text search of very large collection of email with
a very convenient search syntax.
Notmuch is free software, released under the GNU General Public
License version 3 (or later).
Building notmuch
----------------
See the INSTALL file for notes on compiling and installing notmuch.
Contacting users and developers
-------------------------------
The website for Notmuch is:
http://notmuchmail.org
The mailing list address for the notmuch community is:
notmuch@notmuchmail.org
We welcome any sort of questions, comments, kudos, or code there.
Subscription is not required, (but if you do subscribe you'll avoid
any delay due to moderation). See the website for subscription
information.
There is also an IRC channel dedicated to talk about using and
developing notmuch:
IRC server: irc.freenode.net
Channel: #notmuch
Interface options
-----------------
Notmuch includes a "notmuch" command-line interface to the system.
This is not a very convenient interface and it is not expected that
users will find it satisfying. Instead, there are two option for
obtaining a more sophisticated interface:
1. Build on top of the "notmuch" command-line interface.
This might be a reasonable option for a very text-oriented
client environment. For example, an emacs-based interface for
notmuch is already under development and is available in the
notmuch.el file in this distribution.
If someone were to write a curses-based interface, or similar,
it might also be reasonable to build on the "notmuch"
command-line interface.
2. Build on top of the notmuch library interface.
This is a better choice for developing an interface that has
full control of the presentation of email threads and
messages. It is expected that anyone integrating Notmuch into
an existing, graphical email program use the notmuch library
interface.
The public interface to the notmuch library is contained in
the notmuch.h header file. The "notmuch" command-line program
in notmuch.c can be used as good example code, since it is a
simple program that is written on top of the library
interface.
As can be seen, alternate interfaces to the Notmuch mail system are
still in development. We would appreciate any contributions to these
efforts.
