MU ADD(1)		     General Commands Manual		       MU ADD(1)

NAME
     mu-add - add one or more messages to the database

SYNOPSIS
     mu [COMMON-OPTIONS] add [OPTIONS] FILE...

DESCRIPTION
     mu  add  is the command to add specific message files to the database. Each
     file must be specified with an absolute path.

ADD OPTIONS
   --muhome
     Use a non-default directory to store and read the database, write the logs,
     etc.  By default, mu uses the XDG Base  Directory	Specification  (e.g.  on
     GNU/Linux	this defaults to ~/.cache/mu and ~/.config/mu). Earlier versions
     of mu defaulted to ~/.mu, which now requires --muhome=~/.mu.

     The environment variable MUHOME can be used as an alternative to  --muhome.
     The latter has precedence.

COMMON OPTIONS
   -d, --debug
     Makes mu generate extra debug information, useful for debugging the program
     itself. Debug information goes to the standard logging location; see mu(1).

   -q, --quiet
     Causes  mu not to output informational messages and progress information to
     standard output, but only to the log file. Error  messages  will  still  be
     sent  to standard error. Note that mu index is much faster with --quiet, so
     it is recommended you use this option when using mu from scripts etc.

   --log-stderr
     Causes mu to not output log messages to  standard	error,	in  addition  to
     sending them to the standard logging location.

   --nocolor
     Do not use ANSI colors. The environment variable NO_COLOR can be used as an
     alternative to --nocolor.

   -V, --version
     Prints mu version and copyright information.

   -h, --help
     Lists the various command line options.

EXIT CODE
     This  command returns 0 upon successful completion, or a non-zero exit code
     otherwise.

     0.  success

     2.  no matches found. Try a different query

     11. database schema mismatch. You need to re-initialize mu, see mu-init(1)

     19. failed to acquire lock. Some other program has exclusive access to  the
	 mu database

     99. caught an exception
