* doc/lispref/maps.texi (Standard Keymaps): General update.
Remove mode-specific maps, talk about the more general keymaps.
* doc/lispref/help.texi (Help Functions): Add vindex for Helper-help-map.
* doc/lispref/keymaps.texi (Active Keymaps): Minor rephrasing.
* admin/FOR-RELEASE: Related markup.
* progmodes/sql.el: Bug fix
(sql-get-login-ext): Save login values in globals.
(sql-get-login): Use new version of `sql-get-login-ext'.
(sql-interactive-mode): Set global `sql-connection' to nil.
(sql-connect): Set global values for connection.
(sql-product-interactive): Save global values as buffer local.
src/xdisp.c (get_overlay_strings_1): Under bidi redisplay, call
push_it before setting up the iterator for the first overlay
string, even if we have an empty string loaded.
(next_overlay_string): If there's an empty string on the iterator
stack, pop the stack.
This is already used in most places. ``...'' does not get specially
converted by texinfo in @menu descriptions.
* doc/emacs/emacs.texi, doc/emacs/help.texi, doc/emacs/text.texi:
* doc/lispref/elisp.texi, doc/lispref/vol1.texi, doc/lispref/vol2.texi:
* doc/misc/sem-user.texi, doc/misc/url.texi, doc/misc/woman.texi:
Use "" quotes in menus.
Eg it looks better in html output, where it gets converted to italic.
* doc/emacs/dired.texi, doc/emacs/emacs.texi:
* doc/misc/cl.texi: Use @code{} in menus when appropriate, rather than `'.
Now return nil when one or both files doesn't exists.
(file-subdir-of-p): Now only top directory must exists,
return nil if it doesn't.
(copy-directory): No need to test with `file-subdir-of-p' after creating dir.
* tramp.el (tramp-file-name-for-operation): Rename `files-equal-p' to `file-equal-p'.
* files.texi: Rename `files-equal-p' to `file-equal-p'.
* lisp/progmodes/gdb-mi.el (gdb-mi-quote): New function.
(gdb-send): Apply it to the operand of the '-interpreter-exec
console' command, so that we can pass arguments with (say) quotes
in them. Store exact string sent in gdb-debug-log (Bug#10765).
* lisp/files.el (files-equal-p): Doc fix.
(file-subdir-of-p): Doc fix. Convert loop macro to plain Lisp,
and quit the loop once a mismatch is found.
* doc/lispref/files.texi (Kinds of Files): Improve documentation of
files-equal-p and file-subdir-of-p.
* bs.el (bs--show-with-configuration): Don't throw an error
if the window cannot be split; otherwise, subsequent calls
to bs-show fail, restoring a stale window config.
Suggested by Stefan Monnier in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2012-02/msg00692.html>.
* alloc.c (widen_to_Lisp_Object): New static function.
(mark_memory): Also mark Lisp_Objects by fetching pointer words
and widening them to Lisp_Objects. This would work even if
USE_LSB_TAG is defined and wide integers are used, which might
happen in a future version of Emacs.
* doc/lispref/backups.texi (Making Backups): Mention default value of backup-directory-alist.
(Rename or Copy): Note that backup-by-copying-when-mismatch is t.
(Auto-Saving): New minor mode behavior for auto-save-mode.
(Reverting): Add defvar for revert-buffer-in-progress-p.
