Subject: [PATCH 2/3] CLI: pass --config to external commands via NOTMUCH_CONFIG.
Date: Tue, 31 May 2022 08:50:59 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220531115100.2446050-2-david@tethera.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220531115100.2446050-1-david@tethera.net>

This makes `notmuch --config foo external-subcommand` work
consistently with the built in subcommands.
