Not all the kill commands save the text in the kill ring
by default (e.g. `kill-rectangle').
It is more precise to just say that the kill commands save
the text and do not change the buffer (Bug#36741).
* lisp/view.el (view-mode): Update docstring.
* lisp/term.el: Mention both forms of directory tracking in
commentary. Remove obsolete ChangeLog comments. Move more relevant
summary comments to the top.
Suggested by Stefan Monnier.

* doc/lispref/package.texi (Package Archives): Don't document
package-x upload functions in the elisp manual, since they are not
very commonly used. (Bug#19537)
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package-x.el (package-archive-upload-base)
(package-upload-buffer, package-upload-file): Add to the doc strings
any details removed from the elisp manual that would otherwise be
missing.
* lisp/term.el (term-emulate-terminal): Avoid errors if the whole
decoded string is eight-bit characters. Don't attempt to save the
string for next iteration in that case.
* test/lisp/term-tests.el (term-decode-partial)
(term-undecodable-input): New tests.
* lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode.el (sgml-syntax-propertize): Use
syntax-ppss-table if set. This is only needed on the release branch,
on master the caller (syntax-propertize) already does this.
(sgml-mode): Set syntax-ppss-table to sgml-tag-syntax-table. This
correctly classifies parens as punctuation, so they won't confuse the
parser.
* test/lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode-tests.el (sgml-tests--quotes-syntax):
New test copied from master, with two cases added for this bug.
* lisp/net/trampver.el: Change version to "2.3.5.26.3".
(customize-package-emacs-version-alist): Add Tramp version
integrated in Emacs 26.3.
* test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.el (tramp-test42-auto-load):
Add skip for w32.
do not merge (fix unnecessary in Emacs 27)
* lisp/gnus/nnir.el (nnir-run-imap): Ensure that non-ascii group names
have been fully decoded before passing them to imap search.
* lisp/window.el (display-buffer-in-previous-window): Make
doc-string more explicit (Bug#36161).
* doc/lispref/windows.texi (Buffer Display Action Functions):
Make description of 'display-buffer-in-previous-window' more
explicit.
(Buffer Display Action Alists): Mention
'display-buffer-in-previous-window' in description of
'reusable-frames' entry.
* 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.
Do not merge.
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-test-persist-interior-lists): Make into functions.
(eieio-persist-hash-and-vector-backward-compatibility)
(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.
* 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.
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.
* lisp/help-fns.el (help-enable-completion-auto-load): New option.
(help--symbol-completion-table): Consult it.
* doc/emacs/building.texi (Lisp Libraries): Document it.
* etc/NEWS: Announce it.
* doc/lispref/loading.texi (Autoload by Prefix): New section.
(Autoload): Reference it.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.el (gnus-summary-sort-by-marks): Needs the
"s", according to docs and keymap both. (bug#35765)
(cherry picked from commit 13248f7444)
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.
* 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)
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-base.el (clone): Unbound slots of
eieio-instance-inheritor objects as documented in the docs string
and implemented in the original eieio implementation.
