Seems like reasonable complaint. It should be possible to change to the
maildir root, but probably requires shelling out to notmuch config 
get the value.

Date: Sun, 17 Feb 2019 21:07:09 +0100
Message-ID: <87bm3auqky.fsf@delenn.ganneff.de>

Package: notmuch-emacs
Version: 0.28-2~bpo9+1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Open notmuch "from" a random buffer. Keep the notmuch-hello open.

Remove the directory of that buffer (and the buffer too).

Try refreshing notmuch.

Get greeted by:

"apply: Setting current directory: No such file or directory, 
/the/removed/directory/"

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Notmuch should change its own buffers to a safe dir that always exists.

-- 
bye, Joerg

Hmm. what does other emacs software do in that case ?

Since OTOH I can think of a situation where I run emacs when located on
a directory. from *scratch* buffer I launch notmuch-hello, then I press
'm' to compose new mail and c-x i (insert-file) ... Now I'd expect
to be located on the same directory instead of my mail buffer is suddenly
cd'd to totally different location (*)

Tomi

(*) that would be comparable annoying like my experience when using
    ultimaker cura: have to run it with 
    $ HOME=$PWD /path/to/cura $PWD/file.stl
    to have it working as i'd expect software to locate input and
    output directories/files (it sure never default to current dir)

I think David's original message was not specific about exactly how the
directory might be changed.  There are two separable questions here:

a) should notmuch-lib.el use whatever `default-directory' was in effect
when, say, M-x notmuch was run when running notmuch sub-commands
(i.e. when executing `call-process').

b) if (a) is "no", then in what way should `default-directory' be
changed?

I think (a) is probably "yes" -- it is possible to run M-x notmuch while
under any directory, but it makes little sense to run the notmuch
sub-commands from the same directory.

I think (b) has multiple answers.

1) The `default-directory' could be set to something predictable each
notmuch mode (hello, etc.).

2) The `default-directory' could be let-bound to something reasonable,
like (expand-file-name "~"), around each call to `call-proccess'.

3) Notmuch could limit option (2) to those cases where the current
diretory seems inaccessible.

I think (2) is probably the best option.

Emacs itself sets a bit of a precedent here.  If `default-directory' is
a remote file system (I suppose this is tramp?) then `call-process' runs
the command under "~" instead.

Yes, (2) this seems pretty good alternative (3) is just... 
Is `(expand-file-name` -part needed: for me default-directory seems to
start with ~ whenever I test-start emacs in subdirectory of $HOME (*)

Tomi

(*) Emacs expands ~ to $HOME (the usual case) -- some other software 
(uses the home directory in password database to expand ~
(e.g. in openssh config example ControlPath ~/.ssh/master-%r@%h:%p).

Not sure I understood what you wrote correctly, but `default-directory`
is expanded (~ is replaced by /home/bremner) for me on Emacs 26.1 /
Debian.

This a bit more of a change than I was expecting, but there
is nothing very tricky here (except getting the tests for exceptions in emacs working took a bit of effort).

I decided against trying to normalize the use of process-creating
primitives (e.g. to all make-process or whatever) in this series, but
that seems like it would be a reasonable project.

Because of the way emacs reports errors, a test form can crash and not
change the main buffer. To work around this, capture both signalled
errors and any other messages.

Initially just set the working directory, to avoid (the implicit)
call-process crashing when the default-directory points to a
non-existent location.

Use of a macro here is over-engineering for this change, but the same
change needs to be applied to several other process creation
primitives.

  To: David Bremner, Tomi Ollila, Matt Armstrong, notmuch

As with notmuch--process-lines, initial purpose is to provide a safe

probably not other views.
