2021-10-25doc: remove explicit formatting of terms in definition listsDavid Bremner
Sphinx-doc already formats the terms appropriately for a given backend (bold in html and man). `makeinfo` complains noisily about formatting inside a @item if we add our own explicit formatting. This change may change the formatting in the info output. On the other hand, the existing use of quotes for bold is not that great anyway. In some places blank lines were removed to preserve the logical structure of a definition list.
2021-05-22doc: use program and option directives to document optionsJani Nikula
Use the program and option directives to document the subcommand options. This unifies a lot of option documentation throughout. This also makes it possible to reference options with :option:`--foo` (within .. program::) or :option:`subcommand --foo` (globally). This is left for later work. See https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/domains.html#directive-program Note: There is a lot of indentation change, but intentionally there is no reflow. Using 'git diff -w' or 'git show -w' to ignore white space changes makes this a very easy change to review.
2021-05-22doc: cross-reference notmuch man pages with actual linksJani Nikula
Add internal hyperlink targets for man pages and cross-reference them using the any role reference. There are a number of alternatives to accomplish this, but this seems like the combination that retains the man page section number and the same boldface style in the man pages. As a bonus, we get sanity checking on the links; for example notmuch-search-terms.rst had a reference to notmuch-properties(1) i.e. the wrong section. The obvious semantic follow-up change would be to only have meaningful "see also" references instead of having them all everywhere.
2021-05-22doc: use manpage role references to external man pagesJani Nikula
Using manpage role references generates helpful links in html documentation, while retaining the same boldface style in the man pages. The external man page site is configurable. The Debian manpage site seems like a good fit for Notmuch.
2019-01-27doc: fix references to search.exclude_tagsPeter Wang
The documentation incorrectly referred to a configuration item "search.tag_exclude" in some places, instead of "search.exclude_tags".
2018-06-24doc: clean up manpagesDaniel Kahn Gillmor
Many of the manpages didn't treat literal text as literal text. I've tried to normalize some of the restructured text to make it a bit more regular. several of the synopsis lines are still untouched by this cleanup, but i'm not sure what the right way to represent those is in .rst, actually. In particular find that if i rebuild the manpages, sometimes i end up with some of the synopsis lines showing – (U+2013 EN DASH) where they should have -- (2 × U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS) in the generated nroff output, though i have not tracked down the source of this error yet.
2017-12-31doc: unify definition list usage across man pagesJani Nikula
Make all parameter descriptions etc. use reStructuredText definition lists with uniform style and indentation. Remove redundant indentation from around the lists. Remove blank lines between term lines and definition blocks. Use four spaces for indentation. This is almost completely whitespace and paragraph reflow changes.
2017-12-14cli: add support for only printing the addresses in notmuch addressJani Nikula
The notmuch address output is much more useful for scripts with just the addresses printed. Support this using the --output=address option.
2017-10-18doc: make SEE ALSO references one-per-lineDaniel Kahn Gillmor
This will make future diffs cleaner, make it easier to keep them alphabetical, and make it easier to scan and search the documentation sources.

2016-11-28doc: whitespace cleanupTomi Ollila
In most part, our .rst documents are indented with 8 spaces instead of tabs. Bring the rest of the lines to the same format. Also, on one (supposedly empty) line, trailing spaces were removed.
2015-09-26cli: do not sort addresses on --output=count or --deduplicate=addressJani Nikula
The order of the results with --output=count and --deduplicate=address are unspecified as they're based on a hash table traversal. This being the case, optimize the query by explicitly requesting unsorted results. Clarify the documentation accordingly.
2015-09-26man: document notmuch address --deduplicate=address optionJani Nikula
Document the deduplication based on case insensitive address.
2015-09-24man: document notmuch address --deduplicate=(no|mailbox) optionJani Nikula
Document the deduplication of results.
2014-11-09cli: notmuch address option defaults updateTomi Ollila
When no --output option were given, change default to display senders only. When only --count option is given, display senders (in contrary to not displaying anything). Document that --count with --sort=**order** is not supported option combination. Clean up some whitespace in the documentation. One test updated to have --output=count without sender nor recipient output option.
2014-11-05cli: address: Add --output=countMichal Sojka
This output prints how many times was each address encountered during search.
2014-11-05cli: address: Do not output duplicate addressesMichal Sojka
This filters out duplicate addresses from address command output. It also also adds tests for the address command. The code here is an extended version of a patch from Jani Nikula.
2014-11-05cli: Introduce "notmuch address" commandMichal Sojka
This moves address-related functionality from search command to the new address command. The implementation shares almost all code and some command line options. Options --offset and --limit were intentionally not included in the address command, because they refer to messages numbers, which users do not see in the output. This could confuse users because, for example, they could see more addresses in the output that what was specified with --limit. This functionality can be correctly reimplemented for address subcommand later. Also useless values of --exclude flag were not included in the address command. This was inspired by a patch from Jani Nikula.
