Emacs recently (when?) changed the abbreviated format for days.
The clock was confused when trying to mach this format. This patch
by Nicolas Goaziou fixes it.
This commit defines three new functions in org-timer.el:
- org-timer-set-timer, bound to `C-c C-x ;' in Org buffers
and to `;' in Org agenda buffers. This function sets a
timer for the headline the cursor is currently it. Up to
three timers can be set.
- org-timer-show-remaining-time: this shows the remaining
time for the last set timer.
- org-timer-reset-timers: this reset all timers.
This functionality was requested by Samuel Wales and emulates
that of tea-time.el -- see the emacswiki doc about tea-time.el:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/tea-time
When org-provide-todo-statistics is set to 'all-headlines, the
statistics are performed against all headlines, including those
with no TODO keyword.
This was requested by David A. Gershman.
Using :timetamp t as an option in a clock report now allows
insertion of the timestamp for the clocked entry. Timestamps
are searched for in this order: SCHEDULING, TIMESTAMP, DEADLINE
and TIMESTAMP_IA.
Allow whitespace in code references. Allow the -r switch to remove the
references in the source code even when the lines are not numbered: the
labels can be explicit enough. Note that "-r -k" is the same than no
switch - as expected.
Thanks to Ulf Stegemann for bring this up.
Non-nil means modify the regexp in org-set-font-lock-defaults so
that headlines are fontified till the end of the line. This is
useful when setting a background color for the org-level-* faces.
This defaults to nil so that the old behavior is preserved.
This option lets the user customize the notification mechanism.
For example, she might want to use todochiku.el.
This option defaults to nil, hence doesn't change the previous
behavior: if the program notify-send is installed on the system,
use it, and falls back on using (message [notification]) if not.
Before this patch the completion mechanism was this: TAB let's you
complete through link prefixes (gnus: file: bbdb: ...) then RET allows
completion if a completion mechanism is available for the chosen prefix.
Navigating through the history of stored links was a separate process,
available through the up/down M-n/M-p keys.
Now TAB not only completes through link prefixes but also through stored
links. This behavior matches other Emacs completion mechanisms a bit
more closely.
If you have a TODO keyword like "DELEGATED" and an entry like
"* Delegated this stuff to X", then you want this entry to be
in the list of possible targets. For that we need to distinguish
between DELEGATED as a keyword and "Delegated" as a simple word,
so (case-fold-search nil) seems relevant.
This default to t, so the default behavior of org-mode doesn't
change. But the user might want to keep at least one blank line
at the end of the remembered subtree, this option lets her do it.
This hook is called in org-clock-in earlier than the existing
org-clock-in-hook. This is useful for functions that need to
modify the Effort property, for example.
`org-export-latex-first-lines' was rather stupid and would
discard the end of the region with the region was active.
Thanks to Holst Thomas for this bug report.

When changing the publishing setup, old timestamp files can be left
behind. Forcing publishing of all projects with `C-u C-c C-e E'
will remove all existing timestamp files.
Many different people want to set many different variables in a
buffer-local way for export. This cannot be done with file variables,
because the Org buffer is not current while the exporter is running.
Lots of variables can be set with the #+OPTIONS lines, but finding
abbreviations goes only so far.
Therefore we have now a general mechanism that can be used to bind
variables during export operations.
a line like: #+BIND: variable value
will bind the variable to value. For example,
the line
>> #+OPTIONS: toc:nil
can now equivalently be written as
>> #+BIND: org-export-with-toc nil

This commits adds the variable
`org-list-demote-modify-bullet' for this purpose.
