notmuch/contrib, branch 0.11

contrib/.gitattributes: remove

2011-12-06T15:20:57Z

Now that licensing of notmuch-deliver has been harmonized with notmuch, there is no reason not to export it.

notmuch-deliver: GPL-3+

notmuch-deliver: Import from maildrop-2.5.5

2011-12-06T14:41:33Z

maildrop-2.5.5 is GPL-3. No change in functionality, just a precaution before relicensing.

contrib/notmuch-deliver: don't export from git

2011-11-23T11:25:24Z

This prevents it from being part of the release tarballs. Hopefully this is only temporary while we sort out the GPL2 versus GPL3 question.

contrib/nmbug: new script for sharing tags with a given prefix.

2011-11-13T01:24:25Z

The main idea is consider the notmuch database as analogous to the work-tree. A bare git repo is maintained in the users home directory, with a tree of the form tags/$message-id/$tag Like notmuch and git, we have a set of subcommnds, mainly modelled on git. Implementation wise, the heavy lifting is in the following functions. commit xapian -> git checkout git -> xapian merge fetched git + git -> xapian status find differences between xapian, git, and remote git. The central implementation trick, from an idea I think due to tomprince on IRC is manipulate the git index directly from the xapian tag information. The merge routine is still done using a temporary checkout as I wasn't able to get it working with the index only. There are also some convenience wrappers around git commands, like "fetch" that essential just set GIT_DIR in the environment. In order to encode tags (viewed as octet sequences) into filenames, we whitelist a smallish set of characters and %hex escape anything outside. The prefix is omitted in git, which lets one save and restore to different prefixes (although this is only lightly tested). Thanks to Tomi Ollila for a huge amount of feedback and patches while putting this together.

We won't use all of the included build infrastructure files, but adding them nevertheless helps to track changes that are applied to them upstream. Signed-off-by: Thomas Schwinge
