If I understand your question correctly, the answer is no, and at least I have no plans for something like that. An nmbug / notmuch-git repo only contains metadata, not the actual messages. > 2.

You can commit maildir to git if you like, notmuch doesn't really care. As far as having a backend that is not just mail files on disk, that seems unlikely, but I guess you never know. > 3. Debian or GNU use instances of Debbugs. Tools as ’mailscripts’ [5] > using ’bts’ CLI [6] are great. Personally, I prefer the Emacs packages > ’piem’ [7] and ’debbugs’ [8].

You can use notmuch-slurp-debbug (from mailscripts) to get the mail messages. I haven't thought about synchronizing metadata with debbugs. In principle I guess it should be possible. d _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-leave@notmuchmail.org
