14 years agoMakefile: Fix Makefiles to depend on all child Makefile fragments.

Makefile: Fix Makefiles to depend on all child Makefile fragments.

We were previously maintaining two lists of the child Makefile
fragments---one for the includes and another for the dependencies. So,
of course, they drifted and the dependency list wasn't up to date.

We fix this by adding a single subdirs variable, and then using GNU
Makefile substitution to generate both the include and the dependency
lists.

Some side effect of this change caused the '=' assignment of the dir
variable to not work anymore. I'm not sure why that is, but using ':='
makes sense here and fixes the problem.

the two uses of "very" added nothing to the description. Also,

Add some comments to document the recently-fixed handling of d_type.

The fix was subtle, (requiring less code than originally expected), so
it behooves us to document it well.

notmuch new: Fix to work on filesystems returning DT_UNKNOWN

Such as reiserfs or xfs. This has been broken since the merge of
support for rename and deletion of files from the mail store.

Here's the original justification for the patch:

A review of notmuch-new.c shows three uses of ->d_type:

Near line 153, in _entries_resemble_maildir() we can simply allow for
DT_UNKNOWN. This would fail if people have MH-style folders which have
three folders called "new" "cur" and "tmp", but that seems unlikely, in
which case the "tmp" folder would simply not be scanned.

Near line 273 in add_files_recursive() we have another check. If
DT_UNKNOWN, we fall through, then add_files_recursive() does a stat
almost immediately, returning with success if the path isn't a
directory.

Thus, the fallback is already written.

Finally, near line 343, in add_files_recursive() (a long function) we
have another check. Here we can simply treat DT_UNKNOWN as DT_LNK, since
the logic for the stat() results are the same.

Install zsh completion file

According to the Debian zsh maintainer Clint Adams, this is the first
time that a package installs its own completer into zsh. Part of the
reason this is not usually done is because zsh does not provide a stable
API.

We agreed to try it, given that notmuch is expected to change quite
a bit initially. If there are problems or the completer goes stable,
we'll move it into the upstream zsh repository.

notmuch new: Print upgrade progress report as a percentage.

Previously we were printing a number of messages upgraded so far. The
original motivation for this was to accurately reflect the fact that
there are two passes, (so each message is processed twice and it's not
accurate to represent with a single count). But as it turns out, the
second pass takes zero time (relatively speaking) so we're still not
accounting for it.

If nothing else, the percentage-based reporting makes for a cleaner
API for the progress_notify function.

lib: Add non-content terms with a WDF value of 0.

The WDF is the "within-document frequency" value for a particular
term. It's intended to provide an indication of how frequent a term is
within a document, (for use in computing relevance). Xapian's term
generator already computes WDF values when we use that, (which we do
for indexing all mail content).

We don't use the term generator when adding single terms for things
that don't actually appear in the mail document, (such as tags, the
filename, etc.). In this case, the WDF value for these terms doesn't
matter much.

But Xapian's flint backend can be more efficient with changes to terms
that don't affect the document "length". So there's a performance
advantage for manipulating tags (with the flint backend) if the WDF of
these terms is 0.

lib: Explicitly set BoolWeight when searching.

All notmuch searches currently sort by value (either date or message
ID) so it's just wasted effort for Xapian to compute relevance values
for each result. We now explicitly tell Xapian that we're uninterested
in the relevance values.

lib: Split the database upgrade into two phases for safer operation.

The first phase copies data from the old format to the new format

database if the upgrade process gets interrupted. The second phase
performs the deletion (after updating the database version number). If
the second phase is interrupted, there will be some unused data in the
database, but it shouldn't cause any actual harm.
