What's new in notmuch 0.11
=========================
Command-Line Interface
----------------------
Hooks
Hooks have been introduced to notmuch. Hooks are scripts that notmuch
invokes before and after certain actions. Initially, "notmuch new"
supports "pre-new" and "post-new" hooks that are run before and after
importing new messages into the database.
notmuch reply --decrypt bugfix
The "notmuch reply" command with --decrypt argument had a rarely
occurring bug that caused an encrypted message not to be decrypted
sometimes. This is now fixed.
Performance
-----------
Automatic tag query optimization
"notmuch tag" now automatically optimizes the user's query to
exclude messages whose tags won't change. In the past, we've
suggested that people do this by hand; this is no longer necessary.
Don't sort messages when creating a dump file
This speeds up tag dumps considerably, without any loss of
information. To replicate the old behavior of sorted output (for
example to compare two dump files), one can use e.g. sort(1).
Memory Management
-----------------
Reduction of memory leaks
Two memory leaks when searching and showing messages were identified
and fixed in this release.
Emacs Interface
---------------
Bug fixes
notmuch-show-advance (bound to the spacebar in notmuch-show-mode) had
a bug that caused it to always jump to the next message, even if it
should have scrolled down to show more of the current message instead.
This is now fixed.
Support "notmuch new" as a notmuch-poll-script
It's now possible to use "notmuch new" as a notmuch-poll-script
directly. This is also the new default. This allows taking better
advantage of the "notmuch new" hooks from emacs without intermediate
scripts.
Improvements in saved search management
New saved searches are now appended to the list of saved searches,
not inserted in front. It's also possible to define a sort function
for displaying saved searches; alphabetical sort is provided.
Hooks for notmuch-hello
Two new hooks have been added: "notmuch-hello-mode-hook" (called after
entering notmuch-hello-mode) and "notmuch-hello-refresh-hook" (called
after updating a notmuch-hello buffer).
New face for crypto parts headers
Crypto parts used to be displayed with a hardcoded color. A new face
has been introduced to fix this: notmuch-crypto-part-header. It
defaults to the same value as before, but can be customized to match
other color themes.
Use space as default thousands separator
Large numbers in notmuch-hello are now displayed using a space as
thousands separator (e.g. "123 456" instead of "123,456"). This can be
changed by customizing "notmuch-hello-thousands-separator".
Call notmuch-show instead of notmuch-search when clicking on
buttonized id: links.
New function notmuch-show-advance
This new function advances through just the current thread, and is
less invasive than notmuch-show-advance-and-archive. It can easily
be bound to SPC with:
(define-key notmuch-show-mode-map " " 'notmuch-show-advance)
Various performance improvements.
New add-on tool
---------------
The tool contrib/notmuch-deliver helps with initial delivery and
tagging of mail (replacing running notmuch new).
What is notmuch
===============
Notmuch is a system for indexing, searching, reading, and tagging
large collections of email messages in maildir or mh format. It uses
the Xapian library to provide fast, full-text search with a convenient
search syntax.
