+ * Previously on big endian architectures like sparc and powerpc the
+ computation of SHA1 hashes was incorrect. This meant that messages
+ with overlong or missing message-ids were given different computed
+ message-ids than on more common little endian architectures like
+ i386 and amd64. If you use notmuch on a big endian architecture,
+ you are strongly advised to make a backup of your tags using
+ `notmuch dump` before this upgrade. You can locate the affected
+ files using something like:
+
+ notmuch dump | \
+ awk '/^notmuch-sha1-[0-9a-f]{40} / \
+ {system("notmuch search --exclude=false --output=files id:" $1)}'
