When the sequencer is empty (i.e., there are no sequences),
we would have the deselect_all variable set to true called
ED_sequencer_deselect_all to select any existing sequences.

Box-Selecting channels in the dope sheet with click-drag was no longer possible as of Blender 3.2
Due to the removal of tweak events the box select operator was always shadowed by the click operator.
Original Phabricator discussion here: https://archive.blender.org/developer/D17065
Use `WM_operator_flag_only_pass_through_on_press` on click operator to fix it

- Avoid flooding the output with every match that succeeds.
- Report patterns listed in the manual that don't match anything in
Blender.
- Disable external URL lookups, this is too slow.
Instead use a LOCAL_PREFIX (a local build of the manual)
or skip the test.
Without this, every access to "language" would warn that the enum
value didn't match a value in the enum items.
This made the bl_rna_manual_reference.py test output practically
unusable.
The generator now skips these with a warning, they will need to be
corrected in the user manual.
This caused tests/python/bl_rna_manual_reference.py to fail looking
up URL's.
Move the function for getting the language code associated with the
user manual into a utility function (from the generated
rna_manual_reference.py).
This allows other parts of Blender to create a manual URL based on the
current locale preferences and environment.

Documented all functions, adding use case and side effects.
Also replace the use of shortened argument name by more meaningful ones.
Renamed `GPU_batch_instbuf_add_ex` and `GPU_batch_vertbuf_add_ex` to remove
the `ex` suffix as they are the main version used (removed the few usage
of the other version).
Renamed `GPU_batch_draw_instanced` to `GPU_batch_draw_instance_range` and
make it consistent with `GPU_batch_draw_range`.
When nodes are copied to the clipboard, they don't need their declaration.
For nodes with dynamic declaration that might depend on the node tree itself,
the declaration could not be build anyway, because the node-clipboard does
not have a node tree.
Pull Request #104432
Add a new node that groups faces inside of boundary edge regions.
This is the opposite action as the existing "Face Group Boundaries"
node. It's also the same as some of the "Initialize Face Sets"
options in sculpt mode.
Discussion in #102962 has favored "Group" for a name for these
sockets rather than "Set", so that is used here.
Pull Request #104428
Currently there's no way to assign a geometry node group from the asset
browser to an object as a modifier without first appending/linking it
manually. This patch adds a drag and drop operator that adds a new
modifier and assigns the dragged tree.
Pull Request #104430
As described in #95966, replace the `ME_EDGEDRAW` flag with a bit
vector in mesh runtime data. Currently the the flag is only ever set
to false for the "optimal display" feature of the subdivision surface
modifier. When creating an "original" mesh in the main data-base,
the flag is always supposed to be true.
The bit vector is now created by the modifier only as necessary, and
is cleared for topology-changing operations. This fixes incorrect
interpolation of the flag as noted in #104376. Generally it isn't
possible to interpolate it through topology-changing operations.
After this, only the seam status needs to be removed from edges before
we can replace them with the generic `int2` type (or something similar)
and reduce memory usage by 1/3.

In the future `BM_ELEM_DRAW` could be removed as well. Currently it is
used and aliased by other defines in some non-obvious ways though.

This adds a `select_box` function for the `Curves` object. It is used in the `view3d_box_select` operator.
It also adds the basic selection tools in the toolbar of Edit Mode.

The required version numbers for various devices was hardcoded in the
UI messages. The result was that every time one of these versions was
bumped, every language team had to update the message in question.
Instead, the version numbers can be extracted, and injected into the
error messages using string formatting so that translation updates
need happen less frequently.
Pull Request #104488
`bAnimContext` had a float property called `yscale_fac` that was used to define the height of the keyframe channels.
However the property was never set, only read so there really is no need to have it in the struct.
Moreover it complicated getting the channel height because `bAnimContext` had to be passed in.
Speaking of getting the channel height. This was done with macros. I ripped them all out and replaced them with function calls.

This is used for most Python release builds and has been reported to
give a modest 5-10% speedup (depending on the workload).
This could be enabled on macOS too but needs to be tested.
Blender was reporting that the GPU_TEXTURE_USAGE_HOST_READ wasn't set.
This is used to indicate that the textures needs to be read back to
CPU. Textures that don't need to be read back can be optimized by the
GPU backend.
Found during investigation of #104282.
- Use bpy.utils.execfile instead of importing then deleting from
sys.modules.
- Add a note for why keeping this cached in memory isn't necessary.
This has the advantage of not interfering with any scripts that import
`rna_manual_reference` as a module.
This allow to bypass all cost associated with shadow mapping.
This can be useful in certain situation, such as opening a scene on a
lower end system or just to gain performance in some situation (lookdev).
The merge with master updated the code to use the new matrix API. This
introduce some regressions.
For sunlights make sure there is enough tilemaps in orthographic mode
to cover the depth range and fix the level offset in perspective.
Implements virtual shadow mapping for EEVEE-Next primary shadow solution.
This technique aims to deliver really high precision shadowing for many
lights while keeping a relatively low cost.
The technique works by splitting each shadows in tiles that are only
allocated & updated on demand by visible surfaces and volumes.
Local lights use cubemap projection with mipmap level of detail to adapt
the resolution to the receiver distance.
Sun lights use clipmap distribution or cascade distribution (depending on
which is better) for selecting the level of detail with the distance to
the camera.
Current maximum shadow precision for local light is about 1 pixel per 0.01
degrees.
For sun light, the maximum resolution is based on the camera far clip
distance which sets the most coarse clipmap.
## Limitation:
Alpha Blended surfaces might not get correct shadowing in some corner
casses. This is to be fixed in another commit.
While resolution is greatly increase, it is still finite. It is virtually
equivalent to one 8K shadow per shadow cube face and per clipmap level.
There is no filtering present for now.
## Parameters:
Shadow Pool Size: In bytes, amount of GPU memory to dedicate to the
shadow pool (is allocated per viewport).
Shadow Scaling: Scale the shadow resolution. Base resolution should
target subpixel accuracy (within the limitation of the technique).

The previous change in the .gitmodules made it so the `make update`
rejects to do its thing because it now sees changes in the submodules
and rejected to update, thinking there are unstaged changes.
Ignore the submodule changes, bringing the old behavior closer to
what it was.
The meaning of the ignore option for submodules did change since our
initial Git setup was done: back then it was affecting both diff and
stage families of Git command. Unfortunately, the actual behavior did
violate what documentation was stating (the documentation was stating
that the option only affects diff family of commands). This got fixed
in Git some time after our initial setup and it was the behavior of the
commands changed, not the documentation. This lead to a situation when
we can no longer see that submodules are modified and staged, and it is
very easy to stage the submodules.
For the clarity: diff and status are both "status" family, show and
diff are "diff" family.
Hence this change: since there is no built-in zero-configuration way
of forbidding Git from staging submodules lets make it visible and
clear what the state of submodules is.
We still need to inform people to not stage submodules, for which
we can offer some configuration tips and scripts but doing so is
outside of the scope of this change at it requires some additional
research. Current goal is simple: make it visible and clear what is
going to be committed to Git.
This is a response to an increased frequency of incidents when the
submodules are getting modified and committed without authors even
noticing this (which is also a bit annoying to recover from).

Subdivision surface efficiency relies on caching pre-computed topology
data for evaluation between frames. However, while eed45d2a23
introduced a second GPU subdiv evaluator type, it still only kept
one slot for caching this runtime data per mesh.
The result is that if the mesh is also needed on CPU, for instance
due to a modifier on a different object (e.g. shrinkwrap), the two
evaluators are used at the same time and fight over the single slot.
This causes the topology data to be discarded and recomputed twice
per frame.
Since avoiding duplicate evaluation is a complex task, this fix
simply adds a second separate cache slot for the GPU data, so that
the cost is simply running subdivision twice, not recomputing topology
twice.
To help diagnostics, I also add a message to show when GPU evaluation
is actually used to the modifier panel. Two frame counters are used
to suppress flicker in the UI panel.

Pull Request #104441
The ear clipping method used by polyfill_2d only excluded concave ears
which meant ears exactly co-linear edges created zero area triangles
even when convex ears are available.
While polyfill_2d prioritizes performance over *pretty* results,
there is no need to pick degenerate triangles with other candidates
are available. As noted in code-comments, callers that require higher
quality tessellation should use BLI_polyfill_beautify.
Sockets after the geometry socket were ignored when cycling through
the node's output sockets. If there are multiple geometry sockets, the
behavior could still be refined probably, but this should at least make
basic non-geometry socket cycling work.
