I've just sent the mutt.pot file to the translation team. As I mentioned earlier, I plan on releasing the weekend of 2/11-13th. Until that time, commits should be restricted to bug fixes and documentation updates. Please avoid any translation string updates.

If you haven't compiled git master in a while, now would be a good time to give it a try and report any issues.

I've committed an initial draft of changes to the UPDATING file:

2.2.0 (unreleased):

  + $pager_skip_quoted_context determines the number of lines to show
    before unquoted text when using <skip-quoted> in the pager.

  ! Quadoption prompts and a few boolean prompts now have a '?' choice,
    which will display the associated configuration variable.

  ! <enter>, <return>, and <keypadenter> can be bound to separate
    functions/macros.

  + $sort_thread_groups can be used to sort top-level thread groups differently
    than subthreads.

  ! contrib/smime.rc now uses the cms utility for SMIME encryption/decryption.

  + $compose_confirm_detach_first helps prevent accidentally deleting your
    typed message in the compose menu.

  + The $attach_save_charset_convert quadoption prompts to allow charset
    conversion of received text-type attachments when saving them to disk.

  + --with-gsasl allows configuration with the GNU SASL library, as an
    alternative to Cyrus.

  ! $reply_regexp is now localizable by translators, to add other
    non-standard prefixes used in the locale.  "aw" was removed from the
    default value.

  ! $rfc2047_parameters is enabled by default.

This wasn't a big release cycle for user-visible changes. :-/  However,
I did work on a fair amount of internal cleanup and fixes.  I'll mention
a few things touched here, just to be aware of when testing:

* GPG key search hints now use the entire email address.

* SIGPIPE is now reset to the default handler before exec().

* Handling IMAP URLs with embedded passwords was reworked to retain the
  password.  There were a sprinkle of bugs caused by dropping the
  password in a few places.

* The index sort functions were reworked (as part of the
  $sort_thread_groups rework).

* The color parsing code was touched, with respect to "default" value
  handling.

* The compose To: prompt can now be skipped if $ask_cc or $ask_bcc is
  set, and one of those prompts is filled in.

* A few corner cases of $maildir_trash were fixed, with respect to
  $delete and some mail-stats issues.

* SMTP Cyrus SASL authentication was touched.  I changed it to be
  similar to the new gsasl code, allowing long server authentication
  lines.

* A very basic (i.e. incomplete) :cd completion was added.  This reused
  existing code, and doesn't handle issues that arise with completing a
  command argument (e.g. quoting), so I don't plan on announcing it. ;-)

* MUTT_CMD completion was accidentally turned off 20 years ago, but I
  reenabled it by adding back the missing memcpy.

* pager reflow on $wrap modification was fixed.
