Subject: [WIP] public-inbox 1.7.0
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Disposition: inline
Another big release focused on multi-inbox search and scalability.
* general changes
- config file parsing is 2x faster with 50K inboxes
- deduplication ignores whitespace differences within address fields
- "PRAGMA optimize" is now issued on commits for SQLite 3.18+
* read-only public-inbox-daemon (-httpd, -nntpd, -imapd):
libgit2 may be used via Inline::C to avoid hitting system pipe
and process limits. See public-inbox-tuning(7) manpage
for more details.
* public-inbox-extindex
A new Xapian + SQLite index able to search across several inboxes.
This may be configured to replace per-inbox Xapian DBs,
(but not per-inbox SQLite indices) and speed up manifest.js.gz
generation.
See public-inbox-extindex-format(5) and
public-inbox-extindex(1) manpages for more details.
* public-inbox-nntpd
- startup is 6x faster with 50K inboxes if using -extindex
* PublicInbox::WWW
- mboxrd search results are returned in reverse Xapian docid order,
so more recent results are more likely to show up first
- d: and dt: search prefixes allow "approxidate" formats supported
by "git log --since="
- manifest.js.gz generation is ~25x faster with -extindex
* lei - local email interface
An experimental, subject-to-change, likely-to-eat-your-mail tool for
personal mail as well as interacting with public-inboxes on the local
filesystem or over HTTP(S). See lei(1), lei-overview(7), and other
lei-* manpages for details.
* public-inbox-index
- non-strict (Subject-based) threading supports non-ASCII characters,
reindexing is necessary for old messages with non-ASCII subjects.
- --batch-size is now 8M on 64-bit systems for throughput improvements,
higher values are still advised for more powerful hardware.
* public-inbox-watch
- IMAP and NNTP code shared with lei, fixing an off-by-one error
in IMAP synchronization for single-message IMAP folders.
- \Deleted and \Draft messages ignored for IMAP, as they are for
Maildir.
- IMAP and NNTP connection establishment (including git-credential
prompts) ordering is now tied to config file order.
Compatibility:
* Rollbacks all the way to public-inbox 1.2.0 remain supported
Internal changes
* public-inbox-index switched to new internal IPC code shared
with lei
