I discovered that the server supports incremental download using the '-c'
option of wget (so it only downloads what was added to the archive
since you last did it), e.g.,
wget -c https://lists.gnu.org/archive/mbox/bug-guix/2020-10
then
mutt -f 2020-10 # (or gnus equivalent I guess) looks normal.

Probably not news to most devs, but I thought it nice that it works.

(For me anyway :)

That is indeed a good suggestion.

Closing.

Here [1], unofficial public-inbox mirrors so you can "git clone" all
the issues and search offline.  Otherwise, please report the searching
issue you could hit with the searching facilities of the official
.

Here's [1] an archive of the ML in mbox format.
Maybe this helps if you want to grep for things.

Actually it does exactly that (whitelisted IP doing rsync), ever since
The Indicident.  I used to just fetch all mbox files for all Guix bugs,
but this put the Debbugs servers under excessive load.  After the
server’s IP was blocked from accessing Debbugs we negotiated rsync
access.

We do have full text search on issues.guix.gnu.org.  It was brought to
my attention that it’s not yielding expected results since a while,
though, so this would have to be investigated.

Probably!  This is basically what Mumi, the software behind 
issues.guix.gnu.org, does: pull all bug-guix and guix-patches mail from 
debbugs.gnu.org and index it locally using Mu.


I don't *think* it uses any secret API/authentication/whitelisted IPs 
etc. but am not very familiar with its innards.


If you can read Scheme, you can probably figure it out from 
.

Hi,

If possible, I would like to download all guix issues in the tracker (in other 
words, database dump?) so I can just use full text search locally.   Is it 
possible?

Cheers,
Yasu
