Hello,

I have written a small tool which may be of use to other notmuch users:
notmuch-tagrewriter:
- https://codeberg.org/xaltsc/notmuch-tagrewriter
- https://crates.io/crates/notmuch-tagrewriter

This tool was born out of frustration with other inital tagging methods:
as tagging rules grow more complex, it is difficult to track them, and it
often results in rules that are not applied on the first run, or create
cycles, with tags being applied then removed on each alterate run.

In order to ensure idempotence, the scope is thus intentionally limited:
it can only query for tags and add/remove tags. Other initial tagging
strategies are to be employed to give notmuch-tagrewriter data to work
on.

You can install it by running `cargo install notmuch-tagrewriter`.

Remarks, comments, feature requests, are welcome.

Best,
xaltsc.
