+\r
+My usecase for this is the same as for the similar patch I worked on\r
+previously (id:1373762746-22308-1-git-send-email-awg+notmuch@xvx.ca):\r
+\r
+I use inotify to watch for new messages in my maildir. When I receive\r
+a new message, I run notmuch new (after waiting a couple of seconds\r
+since messages sometimes arrive in batches). But since I already know\r
+exactly what changed, there's no need for notmuch new to scan the\r
+whole directory tree. I'm not sure whether this patch lets me specify\r
+a file, or only a directory: the former would be preferable for my\r
+usecase, but either way it's probably an enhancement for me.\r
