+# This gdb script runs notmuch new and simulates killing and
+# restarting notmuch new after every Xapian commit. To simulate this
+# more efficiently, this script runs notmuch new and, immediately
+# after every Xapian commit, it *pauses* the running notmuch new,
+# copies the entire database and maildir to a snapshot directory, and
+# executes a full notmuch new on that snapshot, comparing the final
+# results with the expected output. It can then resume the paused
+# notmuch new, which is still running on the original maildir, and
+# repeat this process.
