python: move legacy python bindings to contrib.

2025-02-22T11:01:47Z

This forces us to verify the build and test suite completes without the legacy python bindings. As of this commit the legacy python bindings are unsupported by notmuch. They are provided in contrib/ for now, but will most likely eventually be removed from there as well. We recommend that downstream/distro packagers phase out their packages for the legacy python bindings.

notmuch-mutt: fix Perl syntax of hash index lookups

notmuch-mutt: check that the search cache Maildir is not a real Maildir

2023-05-28T18:34:42Z

This prevents data loss when users configure the search cache Maildir to be a real Maildir containing their real mail data, since the search cache Maildir is expected to contain only symlinks to the real mail data. Prevents:

notmuch-mutt: do not clear search cache Maildir when nothing is found

2023-05-28T18:33:11Z

The previous results might be useful to the user but an empty directory definitely isn't useful.

notmuch-mutt: clarify the empty Maildir function operates on search caches

2023-05-28T18:32:11Z

Rename the function and adjust the documentation comment.

notmuch-mutt: replace extra command with notmuch thread search feature

2023-05-27T17:26:43Z

This should be be slightly faster since it avoids forking a shell and is less code in and less dependencies for the script. Since String::ShellQuote isn't used elsewhere, drop mention of it.

notmuch-mutt: fix Xapian query construction

2023-05-27T17:24:40Z

Spaces need to be stripped when querying the Message-Id, because notmuch stores them in Xapian with spaces stripped. All double-quote characters need to be doubled to escape them, otherwise they will be added as extra query terms outside the id.

notmuch-mutt: replace shell pipeline with internal pipe processing

2020-08-12T23:40:46Z

The shell pipeline used to symlink files based in search results to "cache" directory for mutt(1) to use was prone to portability problems (due to /bin/sh differences). The replacement executes `notmuch search` without intermediate shell (so shell_quote was removed in this case), reads the filenames from piped output and symlinks files internally.

Make notmuch-mutt script more portable

2020-03-23T01:57:25Z

The -D flag to install (used in the Makefile) is GNU-specific and does not work on BSD distributions (i.e. macOS). Likewise with the xargs -r flag. These changes use portable alternatives to these flags while preserving the exact behavior.
