Use the program and option directives to document the subcommand options. This unifies a lot of option documentation throughout. This also makes it possible to reference options with :option:`--foo` (within .. program::) or :option:`subcommand --foo` (globally). This is left for later work. See https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/domains.html#directive-program Note: There is a lot of indentation change, but intentionally there is no reflow. Using 'git diff -w' or 'git show -w' to ignore white space changes makes this a very easy change to review.

SYNOPSIS
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
**notmuch** **reindex** [*option* ...] <*search-term*> ...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
Re-index all messages matching the search terms.
|
|
|
|
See :any:`notmuch-search-terms(7)` for details of the supported syntax for
|
|
<*search-term*\ >.
|
|
|
|
The **reindex** command searches for all messages matching the
|
|
supplied search terms, and re-creates the full-text index on these
|
|
messages using the supplied options.
|
|
|
|
Supported options for **reindex** include
|
|
|
|
.. program:: reindex
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --decrypt=(true|nostash|auto|false)
|
|
|
|
If ``true``, when encountering an encrypted message, try to
|
|
decrypt it while reindexing, stashing any session keys discovered.
|
|
If ``auto``, and notmuch already knows about a session key for the
|
|
message, it will try decrypting using that session key but will
|
|
not try to access the user's secret keys. If decryption is
|
|
successful, index the cleartext itself.
|
|
|
|
``nostash`` is the same as ``true`` except that it will not stash
|
|
newly-discovered session keys in the database.
|
|
|
|
If ``false``, notmuch reindex will also delete any stashed session
|
|
keys for all messages matching the search terms.
|
|
|
|
Be aware that the index is likely sufficient (and a stashed
|
|
session key is certainly sufficient) to reconstruct the cleartext
|
|
of the message itself, so please ensure that the notmuch message
|
|
index is adequately protected. DO NOT USE ``--decrypt=true`` or
|
|
``--decrypt=nostash`` without considering the security of your
|
|
index.
|
|
|
|
See also ``index.decrypt`` in :any:`notmuch-config(1)`.

|
EXAMPLES
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
A user just received an encrypted message without indexing its
|
|
cleartext. After reading it (via ``notmuch show --decrypt=true``),
|
|
they decide that they want to index its cleartext so that they can
|
|
easily find it later and read it without having to have access to
|
|
their secret keys:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
notmuch reindex --decrypt=true id:1234567@example.com
|
|
|
|
A user wants to change their policy going forward to start indexing
|
|
cleartext. But they also want indexed access to the cleartext of all
|
|
previously-received encrypted messages. Some messages might have
|
|
already been indexed in the clear (as in the example above). They can
|
|
ask notmuch to just reindex the not-yet-indexed messages:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
notmuch config set index.decrypt true
|
|
notmuch reindex tag:encrypted and not property:index.decryption=success
|
|
|
|
Later, the user changes their mind, and wants to stop indexing
|
|
cleartext (perhaps their threat model has changed, or their trust in
|
|
their index store has been shaken). They also want to clear all of
|
|
their old cleartext from the index. Note that they compact the
|
|
database afterward as a workaround for
|
|
https://trac.xapian.org/ticket/742:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
notmuch config set index.decrypt false
|
|
notmuch reindex property:index.decryption=success
|
|
notmuch compact
