Previously, there was no protection against a caller invoking an operation on an old database version that would effectively corrupt the database by treating it like a newer version. According to notmuch.h, any caller that opens the database in read/write mode is supposed to check if the database needs upgrading and perform an upgrade if it does. This would protect against this, but nobody (even the CLI) actually does this. However, with features, it's easy to protect against incompatible operations on a fine-grained basis. This lightweight change allows callers to safely operate on old database versions, while preventing specific operations that would corrupt the database with an informative error message. |
