I fear he will, because this has nothing to do with the other stuff in your
branch.
It has because it is only triggered with my BufferView changes. But
really, I think it is a perfect illustration of the failure of the
current commit procedure. With a distributed SCM (git, mercurial, etc)
my current practice would be encouraged. I cannot at the same time do
very small patches so that everyone can understand and wait tomorrow for
committing to trunk and then merging trunk with my branch.
If I were you I would announce that this patch will go in trunk tomorrow
unless there are objections. This is a perfect example for this procedure:
It is an obvious bug fix with a very small chance that somebody does not
like it, so the default should be to go in trunk.
I know but I need it now. I don't want to wait tomorrow. I will commit
to trunk the two bug fixes tomorrow.
In addition I would also ask Jean-Marc if he wants it for 1.4 (in case it is
applicable, I did not check).
I guess not, otherwise it would have shown earlier.
