Subject: [notmuch] [PATCH] Handle message renames in mail spool
Precedence: list

In order to handle message renames the following changes were deemed necessary:

* Mtime check on individual files was disabled. As files may be moved around
without changing their mtime, it's necessary to parse them even if they appear
old in case old message was moved. mtime check on directories was kept as moving
files changes mtime of directory.

* If message being parsed is already found in database under different path,
then this message is considered to be moved, path is updated in database and
this file does not undergo further processing.

Note that after applying this patch notmuch still does not handle copying files
(which is harmless, database will point to the last copy of message found during
'notmuch new') and deleting files (which is more serious, as dangling entries
will show up in searches).
