What's new in notmuch 0.14
=========================

General bug fixes
-----------------

Maildir tag synchronization

  Maildir flag-to-tag synchronization now applies only to messages in
  maildir-like directory structures.  Previously, it applied to any
  message that had a maildir "info" part, which meant it could
  incorrectly synchronize tags for non-maildir messages, while at the
  same time failing to synchronize tags for newly received maildir
  messages (typically causing new messages to not receive the "unread"
  tag).

Command-Line Interface
----------------------

  The deprecated positional output file argument to `notmuch dump` has
  been replaced with an `--output` option. The input file positional
  argument to `notmuch restore` has been replaced with an `--input`
  option for consistency with dump.  These changes simplify the syntax
  of dump/restore options and make them more consistent with other
  notmuch commands.

Emacs Interface
---------------

Search results now get re-colored when tags are updated

The formatting of tags in search results can now be customized

  Previously, attempting to change the format of tags in
  `notmuch-search-result-format` would usually break tagging from
  search-mode.  We no longer make assumptions about the format.

Experimental support for multi-line search result formats

  It is now possible to embed newlines in
  `notmuch-search-result-format` to make individual search results
  span multiple lines.

Next/previous in search and show now move by boundaries

  All "next" and "previous" commands in the search and show modes now
  move to the next/previous result or message boundary.  This doesn't
  change the behavior of "next", but "previous" commands will first
  move to the beginning of the current result or message if point is
  inside the result or message.

Search now uses the JSON format internally

  This should address problems with unusual characters in authors and
  subject lines that could confuse the old text-based search parser.

The date shown in search results is no longer padded before applying
user-specified formatting

  Previously, the date in the search results was padded to fixed width
  before being formatted with `notmuch-search-result-format`.  It is
  no longer padded.  The default format has been updated, but if
  you've customized this variable, you may have to change your date
  format from `"%s "` to `"%12s "`.

The thread-id for the `target-thread` argument for `notmuch-search` should
now be supplied without the "thread:" prefix.

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.
