* doc/lispref/processes.texi (Process Buffers): Document
'set-process-window-size' and
'window-adjust-process-window-size-function'.
* etc/NEWS: Mention the new functionality and variable.
* src/process.c (Fset_process_window_size): Improve the doc string.
* doc/lispref/control.texi (Signaling Errors):
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Displaying Messages):
Don’t say that formats “generate”. Try to word more clearly.
* etc/NEWS: Coalesce near-duplicate entries.
* etc/NEWS: Note that `message' translates quotes, that the translation
cannot be disabled, and that `format' can be used to get the old
behavior back.
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Time Zone Rules):
New section, mostly with material moved here from other sections.
* doc/emacs/cmdargs.texi (General Variables):
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Time Conversion, Time Parsing):
Xref new section.
* etc/NEWS, etc/PROBLEMS:
* lisp/org/org.el (org-timestamp-format):
* src/editfns.c (Fformat_time_string, Fdecode_time)
(Fencode_time, Fcurrent_time_string, Fcurrent_time_zone)
(Fset_time_zone_rule):
When documenting time zone rule strings, mention the TZ
environment variable in preference to mentioning the
sort-of-internal function set-time-zone-rule.
* lisp/vc/vc-git.el (vc-git-commits-coding-system): Now a defcustom.
(vc-git-log-output-coding-system): New defcustom.
(vc-git-print-log, vc-git-command, vc-git--call): Use
'vc-git-log-output-coding-system' for reading stuff from Git.
Don't override values of 'coding-system-for-read/write' if they
are bound by caller -- this allows the user to force an encoding
via "C-x RET c".
(vc-git-checkin): On MS-Windows, pass the log message via a
temporary file, to work around the limitations on passing
non-ASCII characters via command-line arguments. Force using the
'locale-coding-system' for Git command-line arguments. This fixes
problems with non-ASCII commit log messages on MS-Windows.
(Bug#23076)
* etc/NEWS: Mention the new vc-git related defcustoms.
This mostly restores the change that I reverted on March 23,
fixing most of Bug#20202. The only part of the change that is
still reverted is the change to M-x term, where compatibility with
current Bash constrains us from moving too quickly (Bug#20484).
Problem reported by Phillip Lord in: http://bugs.gnu.org/20484#108
* etc/NEWS: Document this.
* lisp/comint.el (comint-exec-1):
* lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-remote-process-environment):
* lisp/progmodes/compile.el (compilation-start):
Don’t set EMACS=t in the subsidiary process.
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (Escape sequences in shell output):
Remove long-obsolete (and now-confusing) notes about
the EMACS environment variable in Emacs 21.1 and earlier.
* doc/misc/efaq.texi (^M in the shell buffer):
* etc/PROBLEMS:
Remove obsolescent recommendation to consult the EMACS environment
variable.
* doc/lispref/os.texi (Time of Day, Time Conversion):
Be more careful about distinguishing UTC (which is not valid for
pre-1961 time stamps) and UT (which is).
(Time Parsing): Remove stray obsolete paragraph about a
UNIVERSAL argument for ‘format-time-string’.
* lisp/progmodes/prog-mode.el: (prog-indentation-context)
(prog-first-column, prog-widen): Remove, as discussed in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-03/msg01425.html.
* doc/lispref/text.texi (Mode-Specific Indent): Remove references
to them.
* etc/NEWS: Ditto.
* lisp/progmodes/python.el: (prog-widen, prog-first-column):
Remove the compatibility aliases and all uses.
Do not merge to master.
* doc/emacs/windows.texi (Temporary Displays): Improve indexing.
Minor changes in wording.
(Window Choice, Displaying Buffers, Pop Up Window): Disambiguate
index entries for 'display-buffer'.
* etc/NEWS: Minor rewording of the entry about temporary displays.
* src/frame.c (DEFAULT_ROWS): Enlarge to 36, so that the initial
window displayed by "emacs -q" has enough space to show the whole
text even if it includes 2 lines talking about recovering crashes
sessions. (Bug#23074)
* lisp/startup.el (use-fancy-splash-screens-p): Fix off-by-one
error when computing the window-height from frame-height.
* etc/NEWS: Mention the change.
This fixes directory tracking in ansi-term, at the expense of
breaking some usages of 'configure'. Setting EMACS is meant to be
a somewhat temporary measure, until Bash 4.4 comes out and is
common. (Bug#20484).
* etc/NEWS: Document this.
* lisp/comint.el (comint-exec-1):
* lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (tramp-remote-process-environment):
* lisp/progmodes/compile.el (compilation-start):
* lisp/term.el (term-exec-1):
Go back to setting the EMACS environment variable, for backward
compatibility to Bash 4.3 and earlier.
* doc/misc/gnus-coding.texi (Gnus Maintenance Guide): Update
GNUS-NEWS section to match current file locations and procedure.
* etc/GNUS-NEWS: Regenerate by using new procedure.
* lisp/Makefile.in (update-gnus-news): New rule, containing a
procedure for building GNUS-NEWS. The old procedure got lost
somehow when Gnus was merged into Emacs.
* etc/NEWS, nextstep/README: Revert the recently-added curved
quotes, and stick to ASCII. This typically involves replacing
curved with straight quotes. Since etc/NEWS is viewed so often by
UTF-8-ignorant tools, rewrite its non-ASCII text to spell out
Unicode, e.g., replace ‘‒’ with ‘U+2012 (FIGURE DASH)’.
* doc/emacs/anti.texi (Antinews): Avoid confusion in info and PDF
when documenting quoting styles.
* etc/NEWS, nextstep/README: In these plain text files, quote
'like this' consistently, rather than also (sometimes) ‘like this’
or (more often) `like this'.
