Links with description not create a note before the next headline that
contains the link. In the text, the description will be shown.
The new variable `org-export-ascii-links-to-notes' can be configured
to turn off this behavior, then the reference will be inserted inline
in the text. If the line becomes too long because of this, it will
be wrapped.
If the headline contains a time-of-day in one format or another, it
will be used to sort the entry into the time sequence of items for a
day. Some people have time stamps in the headline that refer to the
creation time or so, and then this produces an unwanted side effect.
If this is the case for your, use the new option
`org-agenda-search-headline-for-time' to turn off searching the
headline for a time.
Undo will now remove up to 20 characters typed consecutively, just
like Emacs normally does. We need a special implementation for this
because Org has its own self-insert command.
The code for doing this is a patch by Martin Pohlack.

This is a reasonable request, and this commit implements it.
To have separate values, set org-special-ctrl-a/e to a cons
cell with the setting for C-a in the car and the setting for
C-e in the cdr.
This commit fixes the bug discussed in:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/11106
The reason for the empty line being inserted is subtle:
The function `org-add-planning-info' is used to add and remove planning
info time stamps (deadline, scheduled, closed) from the second line in
an entry. Usually, the function is called to add something, with an
optional argument to also remove something. In doing so, it assumes
that the second line must be there, and if it is not there, it creates
it.
Now, sometimes `org-add-planning-info' is called only to remove a time
stamp. In this particular case it was to remove the CLOSED time
stamp. This happens when the state is changed from a DONE or nil
state to a not-done state. The idea behind this is that maybe to
entry was marked earlier as DONE, but the user has changed his mind,
so the timestamp recording when it was finished should be removed.
So in this case, an empty line was created, assuming that there would
be something to add - only nothing was added.
This commit arranges for checking if there is something to add before
creating an empty line.
orgstruct++-mode is an enhanced version of orgstruct mode that
also imports all indentation and paragraph settings into the major
mode. Furthermore, it now allows to use M-RET and M-S-RET in items
after the first line. The latter change was a request by Austin
Frank.
The new command `org-reload' allows to reload all Org lisp files.
By default it will load compiled files if these are available. If
not, or when called with a C-u prefix argument, uncompiled code will
be loaded. This is good for producing a meaningful backtrace when an
error occurs.
Like TODO keywords before, now also tags each get their own CSS class,
given by the tag itself. Invalid characters in tags are all replaced
by "_" to make sure the resulting HTML remains valid.
Two new variables can be used to add a prefix to the class names for
TODO keywords and tags.

OK, I removed those two fields, and I switched things around so that
the new macros are defined earlier.
Since we now have org-use-fast-todo-selection set by default,
there is no reason for special treatment of the prefix argument
anymore.
Reported by Wanrong Lin.
Org has a number of places where the value read by completing-read may
contains spaces. For these occasions, the space character needs to be
a normal character.
The recent support for ido.el invalidated these special cases because
ido has its own way of dealing with spaces.
This commit now makes sure that ido is off for the critical cases
where completion must allow spaces.
This commit implements the possibility to import the in-buffer export
options as TeX macros, like \orgTITLE, \orgAUTHOR etc.
Requested by Russel Adams.

I agree with this view and the commit implements exactly this.
(org-indent-line-function): Make sure this works even if there is not
`org-drawer-regexp' defined. This can happen when orgstruct-mode is
used in a non-org buffer.
This commit makes it possible to force new lines and even empty lines
in the fast tag selection interface, either by splitting tags
definition into several lines, or by inserting "\n" into the tags
list, or by inserting (:newline) into the tags alist.
This is largely a patch from Christopher Suckling
The variables `org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines' and
`org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date, and
`org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options' are now all mentioned in
the docs.
The commands org-agenda-show can now be used to show varying degrees of
context when called with a prefix argument. `0 SPC', `1 SPC', ... `4
SPC'.
The new command `org-agenda-cycle-show' shows different amounts of
context when called several times in succession.
Christopher Suckling reports that todo state sorting doe not work in
block agenda. The reason for this that the variable
`org-todo-keywords-for-agenda' which is supposed to be a lost of all
keywords of all buffers contributing to the agenda, is not correct
during the construction of a block agenda.
Therefore, this commit instructs the todo state comparison function to
refer back to the original buffer for a list of todo keywords.
Clock lines are now by default captured into the drawer LOGBOOK. This
means that, if state notes are also captured into a drawer, they will
be mixed with notes.
Org-mode has many context-sensitive keys. A new hook system now
allows add-ons to add functionality to these keys for contexts that
are special for the add-on.
For example, if an add-on wants to use C-c C-c in a special context,
if must add a function to `org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-hook' that will check for
the context and run its command when the context is present.

2. Can we put all of those state change history logging messages
into a drawer like "STATE-HIST" (when the drawer is defined in
org-drawers), so it is less intrusive in the file?
Yes we can. This commit provides this functionality. It introduces a
new drawer, LOGBOOK. When the variable
`org-log-state-notes-into-drawer' is set, state change time stamps and
notes will go into this drawer, or another one specified by that
variable.
