66 I don't know about that particular thread, but a few brave souls (well,
\r
67 maybe just two of us) are using the script at
\r
69 http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/?p=notmuch-scripts.git;a=blob_plain;f=scripts/gitmuch
\r
71 It doesn't use unison, but I suppose you could to sync the messages (if
\r
72 you really wanted to). The tags are kept in a git repo and dumped and
\r
73 restored to there. This definitely is too slow sufficiently large
\r
74 mailstores/slow machines, but it works for me with about 120k messages
\r
75 on reasonably current desktops.
\r
77 No one claims this a great solution, but it works now.
