+Notmuch 0.26 (UNRELEASED)
+=========================
+
+Test Suite
+----------
+
+Out-of-tree builds
+
+  The test suite now works properly with out-of-tree builds, i.e. with
+  separate source and build directories. The --root option to tests
+  has been dropped. The same can now be achieved more reliably using
+  out-of-tree builds.
+
+Command Line Interface
+----------------------
+
+Support for re-indexing existing messages
+
+  There is a new subcommand, `notmuch reindex`, which re-indexes all
+  messages matching supplied search terms.  This permits users to
+  change the way specific messages are indexed.
+
+  Note that for messages with multiple variants in the message
+  archive, the recorded Subject: of may change upon reindexing,
+  depending on the order in which the variants are indexed.
+
+Improved error reporting in notmuch new
+
+  Give more details when reporting certain Xapian exceptions.
+
+Support maildir synced tags in `new.tags`
+
+  Tags `draft`, `flagged`, `passed`, and `replied` are now supported
+  in `new.tags`. The tag `unread` is still special in the presence of
+  maildir syncing, and will be added for files in `new/` regardless of
+  the setting of `new.tags`.
+
+--decrypt now takes an explicit argument
+
+  The --decrypt option to `notmuch show` and `notmuch reply` now takes
+  an explicit argument.  If you were used to invoking `notmuch show
+  --decrypt`, you should switch to `notmuch show --decrypt=true`.
+
+Encrypted Mail
+--------------
+
+Indexing cleartext of encrypted e-mails
+
+  It's now possible to include the cleartext of encrypted e-mails in
+  the notmuch index.  This makes it possible to search your encrypted
+  e-mails with the same ease as searching cleartext.  This can be done
+  on a per-message basis by passing --decrypt=true to indexing
+  commands (new, insert, reindex), or by default by running "notmuch
+  config set index.decrypt true".
+
+  Encrypted messages whose cleartext is indexed will typically also
+  have their session keys stashed as properties associated with the
+  message.  Stashed session keys permit rapid rendering of long
+  encrypted threads, and disposal of expired encryption-capable keys.
+  If for some reason you want cleartext indexing without stashed
+  session keys, use --decrypt=nostash for your indexing commands (or
+  run "notmuch config set index.decrypt nostash"). See `index.decrypt`
+  in notmuch-config(1) for more details.
+
+  Note that stashed session keys permit reconstruction of the
+  cleartext of the encrypted message itself, and the contents of the
+  index are roughly equivalent to the cleartext as well.  DO NOT USE
+  this feature without considering the security of your index.
+
+Library Changes
+---------------
+
+Indexing files with duplicate message-id
+
+  Files with duplicate message-id's are now indexed, and searchable
+  via terms and phrases. There are known issues related to
+  presentation of results and regular-expression search, but in
+  principle no mail file should be completely unsearchable now.
+
+New functions to count files
+
+  Two new functions in the libnotmuch API:
+  `notmuch_message_count_files`, and `notmuch_thread_get_total_files`.
+
+Change of return value of `notmuch_thread_get_authors`
+
+  In certain corner cases, `notmuch_thread_get_authors` previously
+  returned NULL.  This has been replaced by an empty string, since the
+  possibility of NULL was not documented.
+
+Transition `notmuch_database_add_message` to `notmuch_database_index_file`
+
+   When indexing an e-mail message, the new
+   `notmuch_database_index_file` function is the preferred form, and
+   the old `notmuch_database_add_message` is deprecated.  The new form
+   allows passing a set of options to the indexing engine, which the
+   operator may decide to change from message to message.
+
+Python Bindings
+---------------
+
+Python bindings specific Debian packaging is removed
+
+  The bindings have been build by the top level Debian packaging for a
+  long time, and `bindings/python/debian` has bit-rotted.
+
+Open mail files in binary mode when using Python 3
+
+  This avoids certain encoding related crashes under Python 3.
+
+Add python bindings for notmuch_database_{get,set}_config*
+
+Optional `decrypt_policy` flag is available for notmuch.database().index_file()
+
+nmbug
+-----
+
+nmbug's internal version increases to 0.3 in this notmuch release.
+User-facing changes with this notmuch release:
+
+* Accept failures to unset `core.worktree` in `clone`, which allows
+  nmbug to be used with Git 2.11.0 and later.
+* Auto-checkout in `clone` if it wouldn't clobber existing content,
+  which makes the initial clone more convenient.
+* Only error for invalid diff lines in `tags/`, which allows for
+  `README`s and similar in nmbug repositories.
