+Incompatible change in SHA1 computation
+---------------------------------------
+
+Previously on big endian architectures like sparc and powerpc the
+computation of SHA1 hashes was incorrect. This meant that messages
+with overlong or missing message-ids were given different computed
+message-ids than on more common little endian architectures like i386
+and amd64.  If you use notmuch on a big endian architecture, you are
+strongly advised to make a backup of your tags using `notmuch dump`
+before this upgrade. You can locate the affected files using something
+like:
+
+    notmuch dump | \
+      awk '/^notmuch-sha1-[0-9a-f]{40} / \
+        {system("notmuch search --exclude=false --output=files id:" $1)}'

+`notmuch compact` command

+  The new `compact` command exposes Xapian's compaction
+  functionality through a more convenient interface than
+  `xapian-compact`. `notmuch compact` will compact the database to a
+  temporary location, optionally backup the original database, and
+  move the compacted database into place.
