* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Deleting Windows): Mention how
'delete-window' and 'delete-other-windows' handle atomic
windows. Minor rewrite.
(Quitting Windows): Mention how 'quit-restore-window' handles
atomic windows and that it tries to avoid raising an error.
(Atomic Windows): Tell how to dissolve atomic windows.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/bytecomp.el (byte-compile-callargs-warn): Don't pass
symbols which don't have a known definition to
byte-compile--function-signature, it fails to compile code which
previously compiled successfully (for example, gnus.el until
2019-06-01 "* lisp/gnus/gnus.el: Mark autoloaded macros as such" which
autoloads some macros as if they were functions).
* etc/HELLO: Set 'inhibit-compacting-font-caches' non-nil
locally. (Bug#36032)
* lisp/files.el: Add 'inhibit-compacting-font-caches' to the
list of built-in variables for which we set up
'safe-local-variable' properties.
`url-insert-file-contents` saves in buffer-file-coding-system
the coding-system used to decode the contents. Preserve this
as the contents is moved from buffer to string to buffer, and use
it when saving the contents to file, so as to try and better preserve
the original byte sequence.
(package--buffer-string, package--cs): New functions.
(package--check-signature): Encode `string` if a coding-system
was specified in buffer-file-coding-system.
(package--download-one-archive, package-install-from-archive):
Obey and preserve the buffer-file-coding-system if specified.

Since Emacs 26, eieio objects use a class record (with circular
references) as the type descriptor of the object record. This causes
problems when reading back an object from a string, because the class
record is not `eq' to the canonical one (which means that read objects
don't satisfy the foo-p predicate).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio.el (make-instance): As a (partial) fix, set
the record's type descriptor to a plain symbol for the type descriptor
when eieio-backward-compatibility is non-nil (the default).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-core.el (eieio--object-class): Call
eieio--class-object on the type tag when eieio-backward-compatibility
is non-nil.
(eieio-object-p): Use eieio--object-class instead of
eieio--object-class-tag.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-tests/eieio-test-persist.el
(eieio-test-persist-hash-and-vector)

(eieio-persist-hash-and-vector-no-backward-compatibility)
(eieio-test-persist-interior-lists-backward-compatibility)
(eieio-test-persist-interior-lists-no-backward-compatibility): New
tests which call them, eieio-backward-compatibility let-bound.
* src/gmalloc.c (_fraghead) [!HYBRID_MALLOC]:
Make it static in this case, too. This avoids having both
‘extern struct list _fraghead[];’ and
‘static struct list _fraghead[BLOCKLOG];’, which
GCC 9 complains about.
* m4/manywarnings.m4 (gl_MANYWARN_ALL_GCC): Remove -Wchkp.
This suppresses a boatload of warnings of the form
“gcc: warning: switch ‘-Wchkp’ is no longer supported”.
when using GCC 9. Do not merge to master.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/rmc.el (read-multiple-choice): When `read-char'
signals an error "Non-character input-event", call `read-event' to
take the non-character event out of the queue. Don't merge to master,
we just use `read-event' directly there, rather than this solution
which relies a particular error message.

more suitable when at the end of a sentence.
Most of the redundants "See" found by Noam Postavsky.
Change the customization type of recentf-max-saved-items to include
nil, as it is an allowed value (Bug#35771).
* lisp/recentf.el (recentf-max-saved-items): Change the customization
type in the defcustom.

(help--symbol-completion-table): Consult it.

"s", according to docs and keymap both. (bug#35765)
(cherry picked from commit 13248f7444)
* build-aux/git-hooks/prepare-commit-msg: If someone occasionally puts
Signed-off line, it will likely get there through -s option of git.
Exploit this fact to abort before a user got a chance to type commit
message. (Bug#35368)
The GCC + valgrind fix caused the m68k build to fail (Bug#35711).
Simplify string allocation a bit to make similar problems less
likely in the future.
* src/alloc.c (sdata, SDATA_NBYTES, SDATA_DATA) [GC_CHECK_STRING_BYTES]:
Use the same implementation as with !GC_CHECK_STRING_BYTES,
as the special case is no longer needed.
(SDATA_ALIGN): New constant.
(SDATA_SIZE): Remove this macro, replacing with ...
(sdata_size): ... this new function. All uses changed.
Properly account for sizes and alignments even in the m68k case,
and even if GC_CHECK_STRING_BYTES is not defined.
Don't merge to master, this has already been fixed there by 2019-01-15
"Fix unlikely races with GnuTLS, datagrams".
* src/gnutls.c (emacs_gnutls_read): Similar to emacs_gnutls_write,
when gnutls_record_recv returns GNUTLS_E_AGAIN set errno to EGAIN.
The list of dir local variables to apply is now sorted by the number
of parent modes of the mode used as the key in the association list.
That way when the variables are applied in order the variables from
more specific modes will override those from less specific modes.
If there are directory entries in the list then they are sorted in
order of name length. The list of modes for that dir is then
recursively sorted with the same mechanism. That way variables tied
to a particular subdirectory override those in in a parent directory.
Previously the behaviour didn’t seem to be well defined anyway and was
dependent on the order they appeared in the file. However this order
was changed in version 26.1 and it probably also depended on the
number of dir-local files that are merged.
Bug#33400
* lisp/files.el (dir-locals-get-sort-score, dir-locals-sort-variables)
(dir-locals-read-from-dir): Sort the dir locals so that more precise
modes and directory-specific entries have override lesser ones.
* doc/emacs/custom.texi (Directory Variables): Document the priority.
This fixes bug #35647. State that when indent-tabs-mode is non-nil, spaces
are inserted before the tab rather than the tab being replaced by spaces.
* doc/lispref/text.texi (columns)
* src/indent.c (move-to-column): Make the above documentation amendment.
* lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode.el (sgml-specials): Add single quote.
(sgml-syntax-propertize-rules): Handle single quote.
* test/lisp/nxml/nxml-mode-tests.el (nxml-mode-font-lock-quotes): New
test.
* test/lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode-tests.el
(sgml-delete-tag-bug-8203-should-not-delete-apostrophe): Now passes.
The change from 2016-01-16 "lisp/nxml: Use syntax-tables for comments"
made nxml-get-inside return non-nil for any string or comment,
including attribute strings. This caused incorrect and therefore
indentation.
* lisp/nxml/nxml-rap.el: Update commentary to reflect changes to
nxml-mode parsing.
(nxml-get-inside): Only return non-nil when inside comments and
generic strings, not normal quote-delimited strings.
* test/lisp/nxml/nxml-mode-tests.el: New tests.
* lisp/server.el (server-switch-buffer): Let-bind
switch-to-buffer-preserve-window-point to nil when switching
to the client buffer, when the client requested a specific
position. (Bug#35602)
