2015-10-21man: clarify the parameters for lastmod: range queryJani Nikula
<since> and <until> for the lastmod: prefix right below the date: prefix description give the impression one could use last modified dates to lastmod: which is not at all the case. Use <initial-revision>..<final-revision> instead.
2015-09-25lib: add support for date:<expr>..! to mean date:<expr>..<expr>Jani Nikula
It doesn't seem likely we can support simple date:<expr> expanding to date:<expr>..<expr> any time soon. (This can be done with a future version of Xapian, or with a custom query query parser.) In the mean time, provide shorthand date:<expr>..! to mean the same. This is useful, as the expansion takes place before interpetation, and we can use, for example, date:yesterday..! to match from beginning of yesterday to end of yesterday. Idea from Mark Walters <markwalters1009@gmail.com>.
2015-08-14lib: Add "lastmod:" queries for filtering by last modificationAustin Clements
The implementation is essentially the same as the date range search prior to Jani's fancy date parser.

2015-01-25doc: add details about Xapian search syntaxDavid Bremner
Questions related to the way that probabilistic prefixes and phrases are handled come up quite often and it is nicer to have the documentation self contained. Hopefully putting it in subsections prevents it from being overwhelming.
2015-01-24Update documentationTodd
Adds new entry to the NEWS file, and updates the search terms section of the man page. The search terms section needs to be updated again once the new section in the documentation covering probablistic terms has been committed.
