The --config argument is pretty useful (for me) when debugging, so I don't support its removal (at least that's what we usually mean by deprecation, a precursor to removal). Until someone (TM) is inspired to work through what variables to propagate, and how to populate them (whether it suffices just to preserve the environment, or whether values have to be synthesised), we could certainly update the docs for --config to direct people to use environment vars if they need propagation. _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-le...@notmuchmail.org
