[Orgmode] Best Way to Submit a Patch
I would like to submit some patches for the documentation. Whilst I understand how to make a patch file, what should I be patching against? I am running a clone of the git repo, so presume I can somehow use git to create patches. Can someone point me to the documentation on how to get started?

The values will be evaluated at the moment of execution, so quote them when needed.

Re: [Orgmode] Possible to get a subtree agenda view? --- possible bug?
Matthew Lundin wrote: Hi Robert, Robert Goldman rpgold...@sift.info writes: Matthew Lundin wrote: Hi Robert, Is there any existing way to do this, or should I start rooting around in the code? For a custom agenda command: (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '((f tags-tree +car+TODO=\TODO\ ((org-show-entry-below t) (org-show-hierarchy-above nil))) ;; other commands )) Actually, I just tried this with a recent git pull, and when I try to execute it, it crashes, with the following error: Sorry if I forgot to mention it in my first post, but I believe this custom command only works when the agenda is called from within an org buffer. As far as I understand it, since the tags tree command creates a sparse tree within an org buffer, it needs a particular org buffer to work with. If that is the case, isn't it incorrect to offer tags-tree as one of the org-agenda custom commands? Since it can't be safely invoked as part of org-agenda? One suggested possible solution: Change tags-tree argument to (tags tree filename), then do some kind of with-excursion to get into the buffer for filename (in org mode). But here we're running up against my limited understanding of the tags tree. Is tags-tree even really an agenda command? I.e., does it build a new agenda buffer that we can use, or is it a way of viewing the current buffer? I think the latter. If that is correct, it suggests Alternate solution: remove tags-tree from the set of org-agenda commands. tags-tree isn't really an agenda-building command, and should not be treated as one. Note also that this means that this doesn't work as a solution to my problem, because it requires all of the car category items to appear in a single org file, and ignores the org-agenda-files setting. So, for example, I can't have work-related in-car tasks in one org file and personal chores that are in-car tasks in another. :-( ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

RE: [Orgmode] Is this an aquamacs bug?
I don't use aquamacs too much with org, but I just tried what you describe, with aquamacs 1.5 (gnu emacs 22.3.2 from M-x emacs-version) the latest org via git, and did not have that behavior. I run aquamacs with (setq one-buffer-one-frame '()) Do you already do this? If not, you might see if that avoids your issue. --Greg -- Gregory T.

I use org on aquamacs and it behaves badly with the agenda. Here's the problem: 1. I have an agenda view with a todo task under the cursor. 2. I press t to toggle the todo state 3. I change the todo state to a different one 4. Aquamacs pops forward the emacs frame containing the org file from which the todo is taken. 5. I am left with focus moved to the wrong frame. I have to mouse back to the agenda frame now in order to keep working. I *suspect* that this is an aquamacs specific problem, but would be obliged if someone could confirm that. If so, I will work with the Aquamacs crew to get this fixed. Thanks! ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] Best Way to Submit a Patch
Hi Ian, there is lots of GIT documentation on the web. Here is a short way to do what you want. 1. get the latest changes git pull 2. create a branch for you to do your changes git checkout -b my-doc-fixed 3. Edit the file you want to change $ emacs $ emacs 4. Commit the changes when you feel like it git add doc/org.texi git commit 5. Create a patch git diff master send-to-carsten.patch 6. Go back t the master branch for normal use of Org-mode. Do this only after committing all changes. git checkout master This all works fine when you don't pull new changes while working on your patch. If Org changes while you do your work, you can do this: - commit your changes as described above. - switch back to master git checkout master - get new changes git pull - return to your branch git checkout my-doc-fixes - make sure your changes are made relative to the current, new master: git rebase master - continue working on your patches. The only problem here is that git rebase can fail if there is overlap, so my recommendation for he beginner is to just use the workflow shown above. - Carsten P.S.
