What's new in notmuch 0.18.1
=========================

This is a bug fix and portability release.

Build System
------------

Add a workaround for systems without zlib.pc

Make emacs install robust against the non-existence of emacs

Put notmuch lib directory first in RPATH

Fix handling of html_static_path in sphinx

  Both the python bindings and the main docs had spurious settings of
  this variable.

Test Suite
----------

Use --quick when starting emacs

  This avoids a hang in the T160-json tests.

Allow pending break points in atomicity script

  This allows the atomicity tests to run on several more architectures/OSes.

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

To improve portability use fsync instead of fdatasync in
`notmuch-dump`. There should be no functional difference.

Library changes
---------------

Resurrect support for single-message mbox files

  The removal introduced a bug with previously indexed single-message
  mboxes.  This support remains deprecated.

Fix for phrase indexing

  There were several bugs where words intermingled from different
  headers and MIME parts could match a single phrase query.  This fix
  will affect only newly indexed messages.

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

Make sure tagging on an empty query is harmless

  Previously tagging an empty query could lead to tags being
  unintentionally removed.

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.
