On the other hand for people like packagers, testing the installed copy is also of interest. When NOTMUCH_TEST_INSTALLED is set to a nonempty value, tests do not require a built notmuch tree or running configure. Some of the tests marked as broken when running against installed notmuch are probably fixable. 2023-07-21T09:58:16Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2023-04-09T14:26:23Z urn:sha1:dfa43a19218ed46f677034ab7bf8b8907a327935 When running the test suite without building first, it is desirable to have the tests consider these variables being undefined as equivalent to the feature not being present, and in particular for the tests not to generate errors. 2022-07-07T10:05:55Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-06-23T12:30:45Z urn:sha1:bf5eacbe7e5b852e030e6a05469dbc9eae48535e This is primarily intended to support testing upward compatibility with legacy repos. 2022-07-07T09:56:05Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-06-23T12:30:44Z urn:sha1:6219e7380ae34cc0c8142f4174bee3cde9bf9662 The original nmbug format (now called version 0) creates 1 subdirectory of 'tags/' per message. This causes problems for more than (roughly) 100k messages. Version 1 introduces 2 layers of hashed directories. This scheme was chose to balance the number of subdirectories with the number of extra directories (and git objects) created via hashing. This should be upward compatible in the sense that old repositories will continue to work with the updated notmuch-git. 2022-06-17T11:40:19Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-05-14T18:25:47Z urn:sha1:7d1e5a5348eb348a4e457650ca3b929e85efde70 Commits or checkouts that modify a large fraction of the messages in the database should be relatively rare (and in some automated process, probably non-existent). For initial setup, where such operations are expected, the user can pass --force. 2022-06-17T11:40:19Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-05-10T10:32:48Z urn:sha1:99e85823c8de570c0f91bca44efa2c47cddb3cbf This is probably more convenient than always passing a command line argument. Use notmuch-config for consistency with other notmuch CLI tools. Now that there is something relevant in the config files, test the --config option. 2022-06-17T11:40:19Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-05-07T13:32:18Z urn:sha1:8ed68c1bbe8c1b7bb69d7bea1e0c8919bfcb0d0a The previous defaults were not suitable for personal (i.e. not bugtracking for notmuch development) use. Provide two ways for the user to select nmbug compatible defaults; command line argument and checking the name of the script. 2022-06-17T11:40:19Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-04-19T11:32:14Z urn:sha1:66ccf420c20bedec8dd78dc81ed1166761b7a467 If the private index file matches a previously known revision of the database, we can update the index incrementally using the recorded lastmod counter. This is typically much faster than a full update, although it could be slower in the case of large changes to the database. The "git-read-tree HEAD" is also a bottleneck, but unfortunately sometimes is needed. Cache the index checksum and hash to reduce the number of times the operation is run. The overall design is a simplified version of the PrivateIndex class. 2022-06-17T11:40:19Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-04-10T17:22:57Z urn:sha1:f67d7c9e7a2d110e54609e572c35804f0172ba11 Unlike the (current) infix query parser provided by Xapian, the notmuch specific sexp query parser supports prefixed wildcard queries, so use those. In addition to being somewhat faster, this avoids needing to escape all of the user's tags to pass via the shell. 2022-06-17T11:40:19Z David Bremner david@tethera.net 2022-04-10T17:06:14Z urn:sha1:b355973abcbe16875e717b8df28a3c1b8d424fb7 There is current insufficient sanitization and/or escaping of tag names internally in notmuch-git.
