Hi James,

Thank you for the pointer.

I saw that the two patches (yours, and the "Do not query on notmuch-search exit" one) are not in git yet:

http://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch/history/HEAD:/emacs/notmuch.el

(The last commit according to that page was on 2011-06-23).

I am not too proficient with the patch utility. Is there some kind of scheduled git commits timeline?

If not, I guess it will be a good time to learn patching.

Thank you once again,

Sam
