It's no problem for most users to enable WAL, here, since
there's only a single process doing both reading and writing
(unlike the read-only daemons).  However, WAL doesn't work on
network filesystems, so it can't be enabled by default.

Mostly stuff around -watch, I've finally decided NNTP and IMAP
client support aren't as horrible-to-configure as I was
imagining.  Well, maybe, at least I'm finding it somewhat
useful...

One problem I've been trying to avoid is having excessive,
overwhelming amounts of documentation.  I tend to get
overwhelmed myself when learning new things, too.

Moving the watch-only stuff out of the config manpage seems like
a step in the right direction in that regard.

Eric Wong (8):
  watchmaildir: ensure I:/W:/E: prefixes in warnings
  imaptracker: preserve WAL journal_mode if set by user
  overidx: inline create_ghost sub
  doc: document graceful shutdown signals
  doc: speling fickses
  watch: imap: only remove \Seen spam
  doc: move watch config docs to -watch manpage
  doc: watch: expand on NNTP and IMAP-specific knobs
