Subject: notmuch.el: Select tag names with completion.
X-Git-Tag: 0.1~329
X-Git-Url: https://git.notmuchmail.org/git?p=notmuch;a=commitdiff_plain;h=16eab4c87dfb812b37cb25eb471c71b1c5a97493

notmuch.el: Select tag names with completion.

Several commands ask the user for a tag name. With this feature the
user can just press tab and Emacs automatically retrieves the list of
all existing tags from notmuch database with 'notmuch search-tags' and
presents a completion buffer to the user.

This feature is very useful for users who have a large number of tags
because it saves typing and minimizes the risk of typos.
