* Fix crash in light path node
* Fix struct alignment issue for cuda
* Fix issue with instances taking up too much memory
* Fix issue with ray visibility working incorrect on some objects
* Enable OpenCL always and remove option, it has no dependencies so may as well
* Refuse to load kernel if OpenCL version < 1.1, recent drivers are needed
* Better error handling for OpenCL device
* 3D views with rendered draw mode will now revert to wireframe on file load
the script has a unix-name <> real-name mapping which is not totally complete since I couldn't find everyones real names.
In this case the commit name is credited.
Also added a link to the credits page in the splash.
* Add max diffuse/glossy/transmission bounces
* Add separate min/max for transparent depth
* Updated/added some presets that use these options
* Add ray visibility options for objects, to hide them from
camera/diffuse/glossy/transmission/shadow rays
* Is singular ray output for light path node

--- text from the patch.
Recently Campbell Barton added callback functionality for Python's usage, but this only includes pre- and post-render callbacks. There are no callbacks for the duration of the render. This patch adds the few lines required for executing a callback while Blender Render is working. The callback resides in the rendering pipeline stats function, so whenever statistics are printed, the callback is executed. This functionality is required if one wants to:
1) Observe what is happening while Blender is rendering via the command line
2) Add custom statistics that Blender prints while the renderer works
3) The user wants to continue executing his Python script without the code halting at bpy.ops.render.render()
Personally I'm currently using this for printing out more detailed progress reports at Renderfarm.fi (such as CPU time, time spent rendering, total progress in regards to the entire rendering process). Tested on Windows, Linux and OS X.
Example on how to use the callback:
def statscall(context): print("Thanks for calling!")
bpy.app.handlers.render_stats.append(statscall)
bpy.ops.render.render(animation=False, write_still=True)
Now all sounds that are not mono but have 3D checked automatically get reduced to mono during BGE conversion time.
Also removed the now unneeded function sound_get_channels and added a missing header file to audaspace's CMakeLists.txt.
* replace by BLI_snprintf in various places, note _snprintf on windows
does not properly null terminate the string.
* fix overflow in sequencer proxy code due to buffer being smaller than
specified size.
* fix some usage of snprintf as strcpy, this is will go wrong if the
string contains % characters.
* remove BLI_dynstr_printf function in gpu module, use BLI_dynstr_appendf
Important note: I used rsync to do the local merge, as "svn merge --reintegrate ^/branches/soc-2011-pepper" doesn't work with our svn server right now!
It was introduced in rev33603 with not good patch -- release event
was catching by outliner after clicking on menu item.
Use KM_CLICK instead of KM_RELEASE to deal with icon drag/drop.
This not changes drag/drop behavior, but prevents unneeded event be handled.
Also make consistent behavior of activating and extending selection.
Added callback to drawMappedFaces which checks if two faces have got equal draw options.
After discussion with Brecht we found it's nicest solution for now:
- Disabling VBOs in edit mode for this case wouldn't be nicer for this case -
some additional flag stored in DM should be added in this case.
- Adding new callback in DM isn't nicer that this solution.
- Handling face selection in drawobject would lead to duplicated code
which is also not nice.
Hopefully, this callback could handle all cases in the future.
Also, Brecht mentioned current VBO implementation isn't perfect, so maybe
when we'll redesign this area dealing with edit mode wouldn't be so tricky.

This patch makes the following improvements to environment map scripting:
* Adds a "is_valid" RNA property to envmaps. True if the map is ready for use, False if it needs rendering.
* Adds a "clear" RNA function to envmaps. Deletes any envmap image data.
* Adds a "save" RNA function to envmaps. Writes the envmap to disc with a configurable layout. (Defaults to the current hard-coded layout.)
* Updates bpy.ops.texture.envmap_save with configurable layout support as above.
These changes, particularly configurable layouts, make exporting envmaps to other software much easier.
This patch adds:
* support for proxy building again (missing feature from Blender 2.49)
additionally to the way, Blender 2.49 worked, you can select several
strips at once and make Blender build proxies in the background (using
the job system)
Also a new thing: movie proxies are now build into AVI files, and
the proxy system is moved into ImBuf-library, so that other parts
of blender can also benefit from it.
* Timecode support: to fix seeking issues with files, that have
a) varying frame rates
b) very large GOP lengths
c) are broken inbetween
d) use different time code tracks
the proxy builder can now also build timecode indices, which are
used (optionally) for seeking.
For the first time, it is possible, to do frame exact seeking on
all file types.
* Support for different video-streams in one video file (can be
selected in sequencer, other parts of blender can also use it,
but UI has to be added accordingly)
* IMPORTANT: this patch *requires* ffmpeg 0.7 or newer, since
older versions don't support the pkt_pts field, that is essential
for building timecode indices.
Windows and Mac libs are already updated, Linux-users have to build
their own ffmpeg verions until distros keep up.
* Add alpha pass output, to use set Transparent option in Film panel.
* Add Holdout closure (OSL terminology), this is like the Sky option in the
internal renderer, objects with this closure show the background / zero
alpha.
* Add option to use Gaussian instead of Box pixel filter in the UI.
* Remove camera response curves for now, they don't really belong here in
the pipeline, should be moved to compositor.
* Output full float values for rendering now, previously was only byte precision.
* Add a patch from Thomas to get a preview passes option, but still disabled
because it isn't quite working right yet.
* CUDA: don't compile shader graph evaluation inline.
* Convert tabs to spaces in python files.
