Hey, David this is really great. Thank you so much for working on this.
This will make things much easier to maintain down the line.
I think what you've done looks great. A couple small issues:
* There are a couple of formatting issues (notmuch.1, notmuch-config.1,
notmuch-reply.1).
* The notmuch part command is completely deprecated, so I don't think
there's really any reason to include a man page for it.
* There's no man page for restore (notmuch-restore.1).
It also occurs to me while looking through this: do we really need a
separate "setup" command? Does that ever really get run? Doesn't
notmuch new run the setup if it doesn't detect a config? If there's
really reason to run it again at a later point, why don't we just have a
--setup option to notmuch new instead? It would also make notmuch.1
cleaner if we removed it.

While in general I think it's nice to have patches to the list, but I'm
not sure how much benefit there is in this case. I would be fine to
just see the patch merged directly from your branch.
Again, thanks for the work on this, David. This
jamie.
