2022-05-07piem-inboxes: Support mapping inbox to multiple codereposKyle Meyer
An inbox may regularly receive patches for multiple repos. Allow an inbox's :coderepo to be a list, and teach piem-inbox-coderepo to select a target repo by prompting the caller with the configured list. Message-Id: <20220506014017.14259-1-kyle@kyleam.com>

2022-04-17manual: Mention piem-use-magit in textKyle Meyer
In 29834774 (piem-use-magit: Unconditionally set to t, 2021-05-23), the initial sentence that actually referenced the variable name was dropped, leaving the downstream text to confusingly talk about a variable that was never named.
2022-02-06Drop dates from copyright linesKyle Meyer
public-inbox has started to drop dates from its copyright lines, pointing to the recommendation at https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/copyright-notices-in-open-source-software-projects/ I regularly fail to keep copyright lines up to date, so I'll gladly follow suit. While touching these lines, change "all contributors" to "all piem contributors" to get a bit closer to the variants recommended in the above article.

2021-06-11Support reading inboxes from ~/.public-inbox/configKyle Meyer
A client may mirror and configure inboxes locally. Doing so enables fast local access to public-inbox-httpd and public-inbox-nntpd. And with the next pubic-inbox release (v1.7), it will be necessary to set up local externals for lei. That can lead to a good amount of information being duplicated between the piem-inboxes option and ~/.public-inbox/config. To avoid this, let users set an option to enable collecting information from public-inbox's configuration. This relies on code getting the list of inboxes with piem-merged-inboxes rather than inspecting piem-inboxes directly. That should be okay because at this point there should be very few third-party callers. An alternative would be to merge values from the configuration into the value of piem-inboxes. That'd let callers continue to inspect public-inboxes, but I'd prefer not to touch the value of a user option. Message-Id: <20210610185943.14155-5-kyle@kyleam.com>
2021-06-11piem-inboxes: Clarify that :coderepo points to a working treeKyle Meyer
The properties of piem-inboxes align with public-inbox-config names to keep things consistent, which is especially important given the upcoming support of reading inboxes from public-inbox's configuration. However, :coderepo, which needs to point to a working tree, doesn't nicely match publicinbox.$inbox.coderepo, which points to another section that in turn must point to a .git directory. I'm still undecided on whether using a different name (e.g., :code-working-tree) would be clearer, but at least document the difference to hopefully avoid some confusion.

2021-05-24b4: Better describe how piem-b4-am-ready-from-mid gets the threadKyle Meyer
piem-b4-am-ready-from-mid's docstring doesn't mention that it tries to download the thread from a piem-inboxes URL before falling back to letting b4 handle the download. The manual's description is better, though it makes it sound like the b4 fallback depends on not finding a URL in piem-inboxes rather than the download being unsuccessful for whatever reason. Reword the docstring and manual text to hopefully make things clearer. Message-Id: <20210524005040.12668-1-kyle@kyleam.com>
2021-05-23piem-use-magit: Unconditionally set to tKyle Meyer
When piem is loaded, piem-use-magit is enabled if Magit has already been loaded. This approach is potentially confusing: a user may want to use Magit, be happy that it seems to just work, and then confused when it doesn't work in some later session where loading Magit happens to not be triggered before loading piem. All the relevant sites have fboundp guards (and those are cheap), so there's no advantage to disabling this if Magit isn't enabled at load time. Set piem-use-magit to t by default.

2021-03-12piem: Add :maildir keyword to piem-inboxesXinglu Chen
Previously the user was able to configure a maildir to inject threads into, but the user might want the maildir to be different depending on which mailing list the threads was coming from. With the `:maildir` keyword, users can configure the maildir on a per-list basis. If there is not `:maildir` configured for a mailing list, it will fallback to the value of `piem-maildir-directory`.
