2022-05-20doc: define and use semantic markup for configuration itemsDavid Bremner
This makes sure each configuration item is cross referenceable without extra markup, and also adds index entries.
2022-02-20doc: add configuration section to notmuch-new(1)David Bremner
Increase discoverability.
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.

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.
2017-12-08crypto: add --decrypt=nostash to avoid stashing session keysDaniel Kahn Gillmor
Here's the configuration choice for people who want a cleartext index, but don't want stashed session keys. Interestingly, this "nostash" decryption policy is actually the same policy that should be used by "notmuch show" and "notmuch reply", since they never modify the index or database when they are invoked with --decrypt. We take advantage of this parallel to tune the behavior of those programs so that we're not requesting session keys from GnuPG during "show" and "reply" that we would then otherwise just throw away.
2017-12-08crypto: actually stash session keys when decrypt=trueDaniel Kahn Gillmor
If you're going to store the cleartext index of an encrypted message, in most situations you might just as well store the session key. Doing this storage has efficiency and recoverability advantages. Combined with a schedule of regular OpenPGP subkey rotation and destruction, this can also offer security benefits, like "deletable e-mail", which is the store-and-forward analog to "forward secrecy". But wait, i hear you saying, i have a special need to store cleartext indexes but it's really bad for me to store session keys! Maybe (let's imagine) i get lots of e-mails with incriminating photos attached, and i want to be able to search for them by the text in the e-mail, but i don't want someone with access to the index to be actually able to see the photos themselves. Fret not, the next patch in this series will support your wacky uncommon use case.
2017-12-08cli/new, insert, reindex: update documentation for --decrypt=autoDaniel Kahn Gillmor
we also include --decrypt=auto in the tab completion.
2017-12-08indexing: Change from try_decrypt to decryptDaniel Kahn Gillmor
the command-line interface for indexing (reindex, new, insert) used --try-decrypt; and the configuration records used index.try_decrypt. But by comparison with "show" and "reply", there doesn't seem to be any reason for the "try" prefix. This changeset adjusts the command-line interface and the configuration interface. For the moment, i've left indexopts_{set,get}_try_decrypt alone. The subsequent changeset will address those.
2017-10-21cli/new: add --try-decrypt=(true|false)Daniel Kahn Gillmor
Enable override of the index.try_decrypt setting during "notmuch new" on a per-invocation basis. We update the documentation and tab completion, and also add a test.
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.
2017-07-18Fix orthographyDaniel Kahn Gillmor
2016-11-25cli/new: document new exit codeDavid Bremner
It seems important to give the numeric return code for people writing scripts. Hopefully deviations from this convention are rare.
2014-04-19doc: make notmuch-new summary line more genericDavid Bremner
Since 'notmuch new' now takes multiple options, it's confusing to show only one of them in the summary.
2014-03-09doc: convert sphinx based docsDavid Bremner
This is the output from sphinx-quickstart, massaged a bit, along with our existing man pages converted to rst. A skeleton notmuch-emacs manual is also included. It is not suitable for end user use yet.
