Hi all,
I sometimes mistype some tags, e.g., collaegues instead of colleagues,
etc. Of course, I then replace them with the right version.
But notmuch keeps track of these wrong tags (as of all others) and
proposes them when autocompleting, which after a few years of using
notmuch, starts being significantly annoying.
Is there a way of getting rid of them?
Thanks,
Tom

Notmuch only completes to tags that are actually present in the
database. So you've missed some.

This will list all the tags you have:
$ notmuch search --output=tags "*"
And this will replace a wrong tag with the right tag:
$ notmuch tag +right-tag -wrong-tag tag:wrong-tag
BR,
Jani.
