* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el (lisp-interaction-mode):
Set lexical-binding.
* lisp/startup.el (command-line, startup--get-buffer-create-scratch):
Don't set lexical-binding here.
* doc/lispref/variables.texi:
* etc/NEWS:
Make it clear that lisp-interaction-mode uses lexical-binding.
* doc/misc/trampver.texi:
* lisp/net/trampver.el: Change version to "2.4.3.27.1".
(customize-package-emacs-version-alist): Add Tramp version
integrated in Emacs 27.1.
Occasionally, loading cl-generic.el from source requires
max_specpdl_size > 1600 when bootstrapping, and thus fails.
In any case we are very close to the limit.
* src/eval.c (init_eval_once): Raise max_specpdl_size to 1800.
* doc/lispref/variables.texi (Local Variables): Update docs.
* etc/NEWS: Rearrange and mark entries whether documented or not.
* doc/lispref/streams.texi (Output Variables): Document the new
default of 'print-quoted'.
* doc/lispref/keymaps.texi (Functions for Key Lookup): Document
that KEYMAP arg to 'lookup-key' can also be a list.
* doc/lispref/customize.texi (Variable Definitions): Document the
:local keyword of 'defcustom'.
* doc/lispref/numbers.texi (Float Basics): Document changes in
'logb'.

adjustment using the mouse wheel.
* doc/emacs/frames.texi (Mouse Commands): Document image scaling
with the mouse wheel.
* doc/emacs/windows.texi (Window Convenience): Document
'global-tab-line-mode'.
* doc/emacs/search.texi (Repeat Isearch, Symbol Search)
(Isearch Yank): Document the new support for numeric arguments in
Isearch commands.
(Special Isearch): Document 'M-s M->' and 'M-s M-<'.
(Search Customizations): Document 'isearch-lazy-count'. Improve
indexing.

key binding.
* doc/emacs/package.texi (Package Installation): Document changes
in 'package-check-signature'.
* doc/emacs/maintaining.texi (VC Change Log): Document
'vc-log-search'.
* doc/emacs/dired.texi (Operating on Files): Document
'dired-vc-rename'.
* doc/lispref/functions.texi (Obsolete Functions): Make
documentation of functions that obsolete symbols match the
advertised calling conventions.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/byte-run.el (define-obsolete-function-alias)
(define-obsolete-variable-alias, define-obsolete-face-alias):
State in the doc strings that WHEN is a mandatory argument, to be
consistent with the advertised calling convention. (Bug#38675)
* doc/emacs/buffers.texi (Buffers): Say that buffers are killed
when no longer needed. Suggested by Jean-Christophe Helary
<jean.christophe.helary@traduction-libre.org>.
'module-load' most likely doesn't do what users expect. Users should
use 'load' and its wrappers, which do the right thing.
* doc/lispref/loading.texi (Dynamic Modules): Document
disadvantages of 'module-load' and recommend normal 'load' and
its wrappers instead.
* doc/lispref/internals.texi (Module Functions): Recommend
'load' over 'module-load'.
This is a useful property when doing further bit-twiddling with the
magnitude array before/after calling extract_big_integer or
make_big_integer. For example, constructing an emacs_limb_t object
using repeated shift-and-add should work as expected, but relies on
the type not having padding bits. Since the C standard already
guarantees that unsigned integers use a pure binary representation,
not having padding bits is enough to guarantee that the type has
unique object representations in the sense of C++’s
std::has_unique_object_representations.
* doc/lispref/internals.texi (Module Values): Document that
emacs_limb_t doesn’t have padding bits.
* src/emacs-module.c: Verify that emacs_limb_t doesn’t have padding
bits.
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Displaying Messages): Document
set-message-function and clear-message-function.
* lisp/minibuffer.el (minibuffer-message-clear-timeout): New defcustom.
(minibuffer-message-timer, minibuffer-message-overlay): New variables.
(set-minibuffer-message, clear-minibuffer-message): New functions.
(set-message-function, clear-message-function): Set variables to
set-minibuffer-message and clear-minibuffer-message respectively.
* src/keyboard.c (read_char): Call clear_message when
Vclear_message_function is a function.
* src/xdisp.c (set_message): Call Vset_message_function when it's a function.
(clear_message): Call Vclear_message_function when it's a function.
(syms_of_xdisp): New variables set-message-function and clear-message-function
(bug#38457).
* lisp/files.el (backup-by-copying-when-privileged-mismatch): In addition
to checking the file uid, a second test is added: if the file gid is not
greater than backup-by-copying-when-privileged-mismatch,
backup-by-copying-when-mismatch will also be forced on.
* doc/emacs/files.texi, doc/lispref/backups.texi: Updated documentation.
Also fixed a typo in the Emacs reference manual, changing "higher" to
"no greater" so that the limit is no longer documented reversed.
* doc/lispref/syntax.texi (Parser State): mention parse-partial-sexp as a
function returning a parser state, and the function to which one supplies a
parser state as an argument for continued parsing.
Refine the documentation of syntax-ppss-context, and correct the text
introducing it and another function.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el (regexp-opt):
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Regexp Functions):
Be more specific about how the KEEP-ORDER argument actually works.
If nil, the regexp guarantees a longest match; this is the behaviour
that many callers implicitly rely on.
* lisp/vc/diff.el (diff-buffers): New command.
(diff, diff-no-select, diff-file-local-copy): Improve docstrings.
* doc/emacs/files.texi:
* etc/NEWS: Document new command, and the previously-undocumented
ability for 'diff' to compare buffers.
* doc/lispref/internals.texi (Garbage Collection)
(Pure Storage):
* src/alloc.c (Fgarbage_collect): Update the documentation of
pure-space overflow for when pdumper is used. (Bug#38492)
The `not' and `intersection' forms, and `or' inside these forms,
now accept characters and single-character strings as arguments.
Previously, they had to be wrapped in `any' forms.
This does not add expressive power but is a convenience and is easily
understood.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs): Amend the documentation.
* etc/NEWS: Announce the change.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--charset-p, rx--translate-not)
(rx--charset-intervals, rx): Accept characters and 1-char strings in
more places.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-not, rx-charset-or)
(rx-def-in-charset-or, rx-intersection): Test the change.
These character set operations, together with `not' for set
complement, improve the compositionality of rx, and reduce duplication
in complicated cases. Named character classes are not permitted in
set operations.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx--translate-any): Split into multiple
functions.
(rx--foldl, rx--parse-any, rx--generate-alt, rx--intervals-to-alt)
(rx--complement-intervals, rx--intersect-intervals)
(rx--union-intervals, rx--charset-intervals, rx--charset-union)
(rx--charset-all, rx--charset-intersection, rx--translate-union)
(rx--translate-intersection): New.
(rx--translate-not, rx--translate-form, rx--builtin-forms, rx):
Add `union' and `intersection'.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-union ,rx-def-in-union)
(rx-intersection, rx-def-in-intersection): New tests.
* doc/lispref/searching.texi (Rx Constructs):
* etc/NEWS:
Document `union' and `intersection'.
* lisp/faces.el (face-spec-recalc): Handle the :extend attribute
specially and always inherit it from the default spec unless
overwritten in a theme (bug#37774).
* test/lisp/faces-tests.el (faces--test-data-dir): New variable.
(faces--test-extend-with-themes): Use test themes instead of ones
from etc/themes. Update expected values.
* test/data/themes/faces-test-dark-theme.el: New file.
* test/data/themes/faces-test-light-theme.el: New file.
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Face Attributes):
Update the description of ':extend'.
* etc/NEWS: Update the entry for ':extend'.
* etc/themes/adwaita-theme.el:
* etc/themes/deeper-blue-theme.el:
* etc/themes/dichromacy-theme.el:
* etc/themes/leuven-theme.el:
* etc/themes/light-blue-theme.el:
* etc/themes/manoj-dark-theme.el:
* etc/themes/misterioso-theme.el:
* etc/themes/tango-dark-theme.el:
* etc/themes/tango-theme.el:
* etc/themes/tsdh-dark-theme.el:
* etc/themes/tsdh-light-theme.el:
* etc/themes/wheatgrass-theme.el:
* etc/themes/wombat-theme.el: Remove the now-redundant ':extend'
attribute in all the themes.
* doc/misc/semantic.texi (Parser code, Tag handling)
(Semanticdb Internals, Analyzer Internals, Tools): Fix file
names according to what was actually imported from the
original CEDET. (Bug#38451)
* lisp/simple.el (default-font-height, default-font-width)
(default-line-height): Say in the doc strings that the default
face these functions use is for the currently selected frame.
* doc/lispref/display.texi (Attribute Functions)
(Low-Level Font): Document more clearly the dependence of the
results of 'face-font', 'default-font-width', and
'default-font-height' on the frame's definition of the default
face.
* lisp/simple.el (minibuffer-history-values): New function, should be
used to access the minibuffer input history variable when the
minibuffer might be active. If the variable is buffer-local, the
previous buffer's value will be used.
(goto-history-element): Use the new function to access the minibuffer
history.
(minibuffer-history-isearch-wrap): Use the new function to access the
minibuffer history.
* src/minibuf.c (read_minibuf): Switch to previous buffer temporarily
before updating history list (Bug#38317).
(read-from-minibuffer): Extend documentation to mention that the
result of using the command will be added to the history list by
default.
* doc/lispref/minibuf.texi (Minibuffer History): Mention the
possibility of using a buffer-local variable as history.
* etc/NEWS: Announce changes.
