2011-06-23fix sum moar typos [user-visible documentation in code]Pieter Praet
Various typo fixes in documentation within the code that can be made available to the user, (emacs function help strings, "notmuch help" output, notmuch man page, etc.). Signed-off-by: Pieter Praet <pieter@praet.org> Edited-by: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org> Restricted to just documentation and fixed fix of "comman" to "common" rather than "command".
2011-05-26Fix check of sysconf return in get_name/username_from_passwd_fileMatthias Guedemann
Fix to check the value returned by sysconf(_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) before using the value. This fixes a core dump on DragonFlyBSD where this function returns -1.
2010-11-11config: Fix confusing of "tag" and "flag" oin documentation.Carl Worth
It has been very difficult to get all of these right. I would not be surprised if I've still missed some.
2010-11-11notmuch setup: Fix to add maildir group (with comment) to existing fileCarl Worth
The intent of "notmuch setup" is that it adds new, documented sections to configuration files that were created before such sections were defined. But to make this work, we have to explicitly set an option in the maildir group if it didn't exist previously.
2010-11-11Enable maildir synchronization by default.Carl Worth
This is a useful feature that most people should want, so enable it by default, (still allowing customization to disable it of course).
2010-11-11notmuch config: Add more documentation for maildir.synchronize_flagsCarl Worth
Including details on which actual flags are synchronized with which tags.
2010-11-11Avoid abbreviation, preferring notmuch_config_get_maildir_synchronize_flagsCarl Worth
Since the name of the configuration parameter here is: maildir.synchronize_flags the convention is that the functions to get and set this parameter should match it in name. Hence: notmuch_config_get_maildir_synchronize_flags etc. (as opposed to notmuch_config_get_maildir_sync).
2010-11-10Make maildir synchronization configurableMichal Sojka
This adds group [maildir] and key 'synchronize_flags' to the configuration file. Its value enables (true) or diables (false) the synchronization between notmuch tags and maildir flags. By default, the synchronization is disabled.
2010-10-27notmuch config: Allow for new "notmuch config set" in addition to getCarl Worth
It is now possible to set configuration items from the command-line in a manner quite similar to the support for querying configuration items.
2010-10-27notmuch config: Provide support for querying non-standard configuration values.Carl Worth
We might as well be general here, and allow the "notmuch config" command to query any stored value from the configuration file, (whether or not the rest of the code actually knows anything about that value).
2010-10-27notmuch: Add a new "notmuch config" command for querying configuration.Carl Worth
So far, we implement only "notmuch config get". It won't be too much work from here to also implement "notmuch config set".
2010-07-19Avoid segmentation fault with NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/new/config/file notmuch setupCarl Worth
Since commit f41a35e2923b0b3ef2f66e91cd30e20b4c1a336a running a command such as: NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/new/config/file notmuch setup would result in a segmentation fault. The purpose of that commit was to ensure that an attempt to manipulate a non-standard database would not inadvertently manipulate the default database only due to a typo in the NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment variable. That is, a command like: NOTMUCH_CONFIG=mistyped-config-filename notmuch tag -new tag:new shouldn't modify the database at ${HOME}/mail, but should instead simply report that the mistype configuration filename does not exist. We fix both cases simultaneously by reporting the error message whenever the function calling notmuch_config_open is not explicitly prepared for a default configuration file.
2010-04-23config: Rename messages.new_tags to just new.tagsCarl Worth
I think one configuration group for each top-level command makes a lot of sense. And this makes the existing naming of set_new_tags and get_new_tags also very reasonable.
2010-04-23Clarify the documentation for the new_tags configuration option.Carl Worth
Specifically mentioning that it's a list separated by ';' and use "will" instead of "should".
2010-04-23notmuch setup: Fix new configuration-file groups to get commentsCarl Worth
Our intent has always been that when new configuration-file settings are created by notmuch, that they get created with comments telling the user how to use them. But this was only working before when the entire configuration file was created. We fix this so that when a new group is added, (such as the recently- added [messages] section) that it gets its documentation.
2010-04-23Sprinkle some const-correctness around new_tags.Carl Worth
To eliminate a compiler warning.
2010-04-23notmuch-config: make new message tags configurableBen Gamari
Add a new_tags option in the [messages] section of the configuration file to allow the user to specify which tags should be added to new messages by notmuch new.
2010-04-21notmuch: Abort if specified configuration file is not found.Carl Worth
When there is no configuration file at all, (and none specified), notmuch works correctly by assuming correct default values. But when the user specifies a configuration file (with the NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment variable) and that file doesn't exist, then notmuch should aboirt and let the user know about the problem.

2009-11-23Support multiple configuration files via $NOTMUCH_CONFIGAlec Berryman
If present, $NOTMUCH_CONFIG will be used as the configuration file location.
2009-11-22notmuch-config: Fix memleaks.Holger Freyther
While talloc is great we need to free the g_error by hand. Tested-by: Stefan Schmidt <stefan@datenfreihafen.org> Signed-off-by: Holger Freyther <zecke@selfish.org>

2009-11-11notmuch: Move welcome messages from "notmuch" to "notmuch setup".Carl Worth
It's quite possible for someone to read the documentation and run "notmuch setup" rather than just "notmuch". In that case, we don't want to be any less welcoming.
2009-11-11notmuch setup: Add some comments when creating a .notmuch-config file.Carl Worth
The "notmuch setup" command is nice and all, but we also want to allow users to conveniently edit the configuration file directly.
2009-11-11notmuch: Add a configuration system.Carl Worth
This will allow for things like the database path to be specified without any cheesy NOTMUCH_BASE environment variable. It also will allow "notmuch reply" to recognize the user's email address when constructing a reply in order to do the right thing, (that is, to use the user's address to which mail was sent as From:, and not to reply to the user's own addresses). With this change, the "notmuch setup" command is now strictly for changing the configuration of notmuch. It no longer creates the database, but instead instructs the user to call "notmuch new" to do that.
