[notmuch] [PATCH] notmuch-new: Option to disable tags from the configuration file.

Jan Janak jan at ryngle.com
Wed Nov 25 10:37:31 PST 2009


This patch slightly changes behavior of the command line option --tag.
Any tags specified by the user on the command line will be added
*in addition* to tags configured in the configuration file.

This behavior can be changed with the new command line option
--no-config-tags. The user can use this option to ignore any tags from
the configuration file (i.e. only tags specified on the command line
will be applied).

With this new option the user can configure 'notmuch new' not to apply
any tags (and that was not possible before):

  notmuch new --no-config-tags

Suggested by Karl Wiberg.
