[notmuch] xapian errors and notmuch return codes
When I perform a "notmuch search" while notmuch is updating tags in a different shell, I get: "A Xapian exception occurred performing query: The revision being read has been discarded - you should call Xapian::Database::reopen() and retry the operation" but the notmuch return code is still "0" (indicating success?!). It would be great to have a return code reflect the validity of returned results, especially when the main means of interacting are piping from the notmuch app at the moment. Also, could the "man" page indicate which return codes notmuch delivers in which cases? I would find that pretty helpful. Sorry for not delivering patches, but I think there was a patch for return codes on the list recently. Sebastian
