Apple changed the spelling of its operating system again, to "macOS",
effective with macOS 10.12 Sierra (2016-09-20). Change Emacs
documentation and comments to match this. Stick with older OS
spellings ("OS X", "Mac OS X") when talking about older releases where
the older names are more correct.
* src/font.c (syms_of_font) <inhibit-compacting-font-caches>: New
boolean variable.
* src/alloc.c (compact_font_caches): Use it to bypass the call to
compact_font_cache_entry. (Bug#24634) (Bug#24565)
* etc/NEWS: Mention the new variable.
* src/fontset.c (syms_of_fontset) <use-default-font-for-symbols>:
New boolean variable.
(face_for_char): Use it to fall back to pre-Emacs 25.1 behavior
when selecting fonts for displaying symbol and punctuation
characters. (Bug#24644)
* etc/NEWS: Mention the new variable.
Problem reported by Glenn Morris (Bug#19889).
* doc/emacs/display.texi (Standard Faces):
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Basic Faces):
* etc/NEWS: Mention fixed-pitch-serif.
* lisp/faces.el (face-font-family-alternatives):
New family alias Monospace Serif.
(fixed-pitch-serif): New face, which uses the new family.
* lisp/info.el (Info-quoted):
* lisp/textmodes/tex-mode.el (tex-verbatim): Use the new face.
* test/lisp/legacy/font-parse-tests.el (font-parse-tests--data):
Add test case for Monospace Serif.
This is backport from master
(cherry picked from commit 36906806cc)
* lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-library):
* lisp/help-mode.el (help-function-def, help-variable-def):
Run `find-function-after-hook' inside the help-function of the
buttons (bug#22583).
* etc/NEWS: Mention the change.
This is a backport from master.
(cherry picked from commit f069d85450)
* 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/progmodes/compile.el (compilation-start):
Don’t set EMACS=t in the subsidiary process.
* 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.

to them.

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.
