+## Getting set up
-1. The current set of patches against notmuch master is in branch nmbug,
+1. Install and use notmuch version notmuch 0.9+23~g556c5fa or newer (enter notmuch --version to check your version)
- git://pivot.cs.unb.ca/notmuch.git
+2. Get nmbug script using
- Currently you need at least the version of notmuch in master, and
- the script in contrib/nmbug.
+ git clone git://pivot.cs.unb.ca/notmuch.git notmuch-nmbug
+ cd notmuch-nmbug
+ git branch -b nmbug origin/nmbug
+
+ The script is now available in contrib/nmbug
-2. The current tag repo can be obtained by
+3. The current tag repo can be obtained by
+
+ git clone --bare git://pivot.cs.unb.ca/nmbug.git $HOME/.nmbug
+
+ Check that your git is recent enough by entering
+
+ git --git-dir=$HOME/.nmbug fetch
- git clone --bare git://pivot.cs.unb.ca/nmbug.git $HOME/.nmbug
+ If you get failures then you need to update your git (as well).
## Using nmbug, simple example
notmuch::emacs is a patch/bug for the emacs UI
notmuch::feature provides a new feature
notmuch::fix fixes a bug
+ notmuch::moreinfo waiting for feedback from patch proposer or others
notmuch::obsolete replaced by some other patch
notmuch::patch
notmuch::portability improves portability
## Tracking the patch queue
- I use the following search (in my case as a saved search in emacs).
+I use the following search (in my case as a saved search in emacs).
