The new ++ behaviour allows for more accurate mail folder based searches, and ++ should lead to less surprising results than the old behaviour. Users ++ are advised to see the `notmuch-search-terms` manual page for ++ details, and review how the change affects their existing `folder:` ++ searches. ++ ++There is a new `path:` search prefix. ++ ++ The new `path:` search prefix complements the `folder:` prefix. The ++ `path:` prefix searches for email messages that are in particular ++ directories within the mail store, optionally recursively using a ++ special syntax. See the `notmuch-search-terms` manual page for ++ details. ++ ++Notmuch database upgrade due to `folder:` and `path:` changes ++ ++ The above mentioned changes to the `folder:` prefix and the addition ++ of `path:` prefix require a Notmuch database upgrade. This will be ++ done automatically, without prompting on the next time `notmuch new` ++ is run after the upgrade. The upgrade is not reversible, and the ++ upgraded database will not be readable by older versions of ++ Notmuch. As a safeguard, a database dump will be created in the ++ `.notmuch` directory before upgrading. ++ ++Library changes ++--------------- ++ ++Notmuch database upgrade ++ ++ The libnotmuch consumers are reminded to handle database upgrades ++ properly, either by relying on running `notmuch new`, or checking ++ `notmuch_database_needs_upgrade()` and calling ++ `notmuch_database_upgrade()` as necessary. This has always been the ++ case, but in practise there have been no database upgrades in any ++ released version of Notmuch before now. ++ + Command-Line Interface + ---------------------- + +-- +1.9.2 +
