Notmuch 0.9 (2011-10-01)
========================
New, general features
---------------------
### Correct handling of interruptions during `notmuch new`
`notmuch new` now operates as a series of small, self-consistent
transactions, so it can correctly resume after an interruption or
crash. Previously, interruption could lose existing tags, fail to
detect messages on resume, or leave the database in a state
temporarily or permanently inconsistent with the mail store.
Library changes
---------------
### New functions
`notmuch_database_begin_atomic` and `notmuch_database_end_atomic`
allow multiple database operations to be performed atomically.
`notmuch_database_find_message_by_filename` does exactly what it says.
### API changes
`notmuch_database_find_message` (and `n_d_f_m_by_filename`) now return
a status indicator and uses an output parameter for the
message. This change required changing the SONAME of libnotmuch to
libnotmuch.so.2
Python bindings changes
-----------------------
- Re-encode python unicode objects to utf-8 before passing back to
libnotmuch.
- Support `Database().begin_atomic()/end_atomic()`
- Support `Database().find_message_by_filename()`
NB! This needs a db opened in READ-WRITE mode currently, or it will crash
the python process. The is a limitation (=bug) of the underlying libnotmuch.
- Fixes where we would not throw NotmuchErrors when we should (Justus Winter)
- Update for `n_d_find_message*` API changes (see above).
Ruby bindings changes
---------------------
- Wrap new library functions `notmuch_database_{begin,end}_atomic.`
- Add new exception `Notmuch::UnbalancedAtomicError.`
- Rename destroy to destroy! according to Ruby naming conventions.
- Update for `n_d_find_message*` API changes (see above).
Emacs improvements
------------------
* Add gpg callback to crypto sigstatus buttons to retrieve/refresh
signing key.
* Add `notmuch-show-refresh-view` function (and corresponding binding)
to refresh the view of a notmuch-show buffer.
Reply formatting cleanup
------------------------
`notmuch reply` no longer includes notification that non-leafnode
MIME parts are being suppressed.
