Subject: lib: Only sync modified message documents
X-Git-Tag: 0.21_rc0~77
X-Git-Url: https://git.notmuchmail.org/git?p=notmuch;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e6ad3a5dd4ca7a09a4760c4eb6721217cc906aaa

lib: Only sync modified message documents

Previously, we updated the database copy of a message on every call to
_notmuch_message_sync, even if nothing had changed.  In particular,
this always happens on a thaw, so a freeze/thaw pair with no
modifications between still caused a database update.

We only modify message documents in a handful of places, so keep track
of whether the document has been modified and only sync it when
necessary.  This will be particularly important when we add message
revision tracking.
