* test/lisp/autorevert-tests.el ()
(auto-revert-test02-auto-revert-deleted-file):
* test/lisp/filenotify-tests.el (file-notify-test04-autorevert):
Check `file-notify-valid-p', not that the descriptor is nil.
* test/lisp/autorevert-tests.el (auto-revert--timeout):
Derive value from `auto-revert-interval'.
(auto-revert--deftest-remote): Tag it as `:unstable'.
(auto-revert-test05-global-notify, auto-revert-test06-write-file):
Suppress final newline. Use `auto-revert--timeout'.
Make `auto-revert-avoid-polling' have effect in global-auto-revert-mode.
Buffers actually handled by that mode are marked with a non-nil value
of `auto-revert--global-mode'. When global-auto-revert-mode is
entered, eligible buffers are marked in that way, and hooks are set up
to mark new buffers and take care of buffers whose file names change.
This way the existing poll-avoidance logic can be used, since the
entire set of buffers in auto-revert is known.
A new hook, `after-set-visited-file-name-hook', was added to handle
the case when the file name of a tracked buffer changes.
* lisp/autorevert.el (auto-revert-avoid-polling): Amend doc string.
(auto-revert--global-mode): New buffer-local variable.
(global-auto-revert-mode): Mark existing buffers and set up hooks when
mode is entered; do the opposite when exited.
(auto-revert--global-add-current-buffer)
(auto-revert--global-adopt-current-buffer)
(auto-revert--set-visited-file-name-advice): New functions.
(auto-revert--polled-buffers, auto-revert--need-polling-p)
(auto-revert-notify-handler)
(auto-revert-active-p): Modify logic to cover global-auto-revert-mode.
* lisp/files.el (after-set-visited-file-name-hook): New hook.
(set-visited-file-name-hook): Call new hook.
* test/lisp/autorevert-tests.el (top): Use lexical-binding.
(auto-revert-test--write-file, auto-revert-test--buffer-string)
(auto-revert-test--wait-for, auto-revert-test--wait-for-buffer-text)
(auto-revert-test05-global-notify): New test.
* doc/lispref/hooks.texi (Standard Hooks):
Mention new hook (in a comment, since it's unclear whether it should
actually be documented here)
* etc/NEWS (Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages): Update entry.
* test/lisp/autorevert-tests.el (auto-revert--deftest-remote):
Fix typo.
(auto-revert-test02-auto-revert-deleted-file): On emba, there are
no stopped events.
* lisp/autorevert.el (auto-revert-mode)

(auto-revert-notify-handler, auto-revert-handler): Do not use
buffer local `auto-revert-use-notify' anymore.
* test/lisp/autorevert-tests.el
(auto-revert-test02-auto-revert-deleted-file): Adapt test in
order to check, that file notification is reenabled when possible.
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
