cli/insert: return EX_TEMPFAIL for some errors

2016-12-07T11:00:40Z

Attempt to distinguish between errors indicating misconfiguration or programmer error, which we consider "permanent", in the sense that automatic retries are unlikely to be useful, and those indicating transient error conditions. We consider XAPIAN_EXCEPTION transient because it covers the important special case of locking failure.

test: gdb insert: redirect input inside gdb script

2016-12-07T11:00:39Z

Running `gdb command < input` is not as reliable way to give input to the command (some installations of gdb consume it). Use "set args" gdb command to have input redirected at gdb 'run' time.

test: make gdb even quieter

2016-08-09T00:33:59Z

gdb sometimes writes warnings to stdout, which we don't need/want, and for some reason --batch-silent isn't enough to hide. So in this commit we write them to a log file, which is probably better for debugging anyway. To see an illustrative test failure before this change, run % make % touch notmuch-count.c % cd test && ./T060-count.sh

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.

lib: add NOTMUCH_STATUS_PATH_ERROR

2015-06-12T05:34:47Z

The difference with FILE_ERROR is that this is for things that are wrong with the path before looking at the disk. Add some 3 tests; two broken as a reminder to actually use this new code.

test: remove redundant 'file' command from gdb scripts.

2015-05-31T16:56:10Z

Quoting Debian bug 787341 It failed to build on arm64: the last ten tests in T070-insert failed. What's happening here is that GDB is segfaulting in response to the "file" command. GDB on arm64 can be a bit buggy. However, the "file" command is redundant here as GDB has already got the file from the --args on the command line.

test: check for gdb in insert tests

2014-10-18T06:13:42Z

Commits a6cee01 and c48b12f otherwise break the build for people without gdb.

test/insert: check that indexing errors are accepted with --keep

2014-10-18T05:58:42Z

This is overkill for the current code path, but should provide some robustness for future changes in error handling.

cli/insert: require succesful message indexing for success status

2014-10-18T05:54:25Z

Add --keep option to keep any remaining stuff in index or file. We could distinguish between failures to index and failures to apply tags or maildir sync, but for simplicity just have one.

test/insert: add known broken tests for indexing failures

2014-10-18T05:51:18Z

These tests are written with the assumption that we want all indexing failures to be considered as failures by notmuch insert.
