That exceeds 80 columns (I only ran "make check-run", not
"make check" :x).

Will squash this in:

There's a few more, but maybe they're too esoteric
to be worth documenting at the moment (batch sizes, timeouts, etc).

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
