Subject: [PATCH 4/4] lib/n_d_get_version: catch exceptions and clarify the API
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2020 19:41:19 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200714224119.717845-5-david@tethera.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200714224119.717845-1-david@tethera.net>
notmuch_database_get_version previously returned 0 on some errors, but
did not document this. Luckily 0 is not a valid database version.
