notmuch/performance-test, branch 0.23_rc1

Use https instead of http where possible

2016-06-05T11:32:17Z

Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs found in tests.

test: copyright information updates

2016-05-19T10:56:58Z

Files in test directories had only copyright of a single individual, of which code was adapted here as a base of the test system. Since then many Notmuch Developers have contributed to the test system, which is now acknowledged with a constant string in some of the test files. The README file in test directory instructed new files contain a copyright notice, but that has never been done (and it is also not needed). To simplify things a bit (and lessen confusion) this instruction is now removed. As a side enchangement, all of the 3 entries in the whole source tree cd'ing to `dirname` of "$0" now uses syntax cd "$(dirname "$0")". This makes these particular lines work when current working directory is e.g. /c/Program Files/notmuch/test/. (Probably it would fail elsewhere, though.)

test: make script exit (1) if it "fails" to source (.) a file

2015-08-07T19:56:39Z

The files (test) scripts source (with builtin command `.`) provides information which the scripts depend, and without the `source` to succeed allowing script to continue may lead to dangerous situations (e.g. rm -rf "${undefined_variable}"/*). At the end of all source (.) lines construct ' || exit 1' was added; In our case the script script will exit if it cannot find (or read) the file to be sourced. Additionally script would also exits if the last command of the sourced file exited nonzero.

cli: change "setup" to "set up" where used as a verb

2015-05-31T17:14:42Z

The word "setup" is a noun, not a verb. Change occurrences of "setup" where used as a verb to "set up".

build: add dataclean

2014-05-28T12:52:10Z

It turns out to be inconvenient to delete the downloaded datafiles with distclean, so I propose a new target which does that instead. The closest conventional target is 'maintainer-clean'; the difference here is that having the original source tarball is not enough to reconstruct these files.

build: don't overwrite DISTCLEAN in performance-test

2014-05-28T12:51:40Z

This might have worked once for some fixed order of including makefiles, but it is clearly wrong now.

perf-test: use command line arguments for directories

2014-03-15T00:47:43Z

It seems that between version 1.26 and 1.27 of gnu tar, directories to be extracted read with --files-from are no longer recursively extacted. This patch puts them on the command line instead.

perf-test: bump version to 0.4, use manifest files

2013-12-09T20:00:38Z

The new revision of the performance test includes manifests for each corpus, so update the support library to use these manifests at the same time.

perf: Clean corpus and caches in distclean, not clean

2013-10-26T00:24:43Z

Previously, we cleaned the downloaded performance corpus and the cached indexes on 'make clean'. This seems heavy-handed, since these take a long time to download, unpack, and index. They also aren't make targets to begin with. Move cleaning these to 'make distclean'. This isn't exactly the right meaning of "distclean", but it's closer.

build: fix out-of-tree builds

2013-05-26T21:49:04Z

Support for out-of-tree builds was added in commit 3e4a9d60a9419621b08c647a306843d76c47c2cb Author: Carl Worth Date: Wed Mar 9 15:02:42 2011 -0800 build: Add support for non-source-directory builds. and broken in commit 7beeb8c88a014ecbc53d8241f10683b3c4c16228 Author: David Bremner Date: Sat Nov 17 12:28:15 2012 -0400 test: initial performance testing infrastructure Fix the build breakage. Out-of-tree 'make test' has been broken since earlier than the above, and remains broken, as does out-of-tree perf test, but at least the build now works.
