A simple bash-script to find duplicated mails and deduplicate them with a hardlink.
- notmuch
- GNU/parallel
- jq
- pv
Just run
notmuch-deduplicate <query>
where <query> is a notmuch query.
Some mail threads are too deep, and jq breaks. I didn't manage to catch that, so instead of running
notmuch-deduplicate '*'
it is rather more sensible to run something like this
#!/bin/bash
day=$(date -d "$2" +%F)
N="$1"
query="${@:3}"
echo "${query}"
for i in $(seq "1" "${N}"):
do
echo "Day: ${day}"
notmuch-deduplicate "date:${day}..${day} ${query}"
day=$(date -d "${day} - 1 day" +%F)
done
