The idea here is to keep things in a logical order to match the order of ones worflow.
This concept can be seen in Graph > Dope Sheet > NLA. This issue is mainly affecting the manual.

The goal is to reduce wasted space and improve clarity in the 'N' panel of the VSE through layout changes.
The changes are intentional conservative to avoid making people re-learn anything.

* "Filmic" and "False Color" view transforms added (sRGB display device only).
* "Very Low/Low/Base/High/Very High Contrast" looks added.
* Added filtering so that Filmic only shows look names prefixed with "Filmic - ".
Filmic Dynamic Range LUT configuration created by Troy James Sobotka with
special thanks and feedback from Guillermo, Claudio Rocha, Bassam Kurdali,
Eugenio Pignataro, Henri Hebeisen, Jason Clarke, Haarm-Peter Duiker, Thomas

This commit contains the first part of the new Cycles denoising option,
which filters the resulting image using information gathered during rendering
to get rid of noise while preserving visual features as well as possible.
To use the option, enable it in the render layer options. The default settings
fit a wide range of scenes, but the user can tweak individual settings to
control the tradeoff between a noise-free image, image details, and calculation
time.
Note that the denoiser may still change in the future and that some features
are not implemented yet. The most important missing feature is animation
denoising, which uses information from multiple frames at once to produce a
flicker-free and smoother result. These features will be added in the future.
Finally, thanks to all the people who supported this project:
- Google (through the GSoC) and Theory Studios for sponsoring the development
- The authors of the papers I used for implementing the denoiser (more details
on them will be included in the technical docs)
- The other Cycles devs for feedback on the code, especially Sergey for
mentoring the GSoC project and Brecht for the code review!
- And of course the users who helped with testing, reported bugs and things
that could and/or should work better!
Those shall not be considered while checking whether a to-be-made-local
ID will end up fully local, or still be partially used by linked data...
Even less since we already do have special handling of proxies later.
Fixes main remaining issue found with 04_01_H.lighting.blend Agent327
file, and allows us to switch back to optimized post-processing in
make_local code.
That one tags those ugly little 'from' ID pointers (shape keys and
proxies), which point back from used to user ID, and require a lot of
special care in data-block management...
Again, Agent327's 04_01_H.lighting.blend shows some problem here, it
triggers several times the 'not used at all' assert in step 5 of secure
code, and with optimized version we lose the connection between
rigs and the main characters!
Will keep investigating on this, but for now let's try to give something
working to the studio.
This should not be needed imho, we already set POSE_RECALC flag
correctly there, but it still is missing actual update of poses in some
(complex and convoluted) cases. So at least for now, let's go with this
hack, it's not really harming anyone anyway.
Fixes crash in Agent327's 04_01_H.lighting.blend when making all local.
Not sure how this happens, but in some cases we can evaluate
deformations of an armature which pose is not valid, at least put a
warning here to help identifying the issue quickly.
This reverts commit f5bc8ad4ce87165fc0648f1cd8c0ae1fb5f07281.
We agreed there needs to be a better solution for this, see comments in
rBf5bc8ad4ce87165.
The issue was caused by unlimited textures commit, root of the issue is that
displacement code updates some of the image slots directly, so it needs to
ensure device vectors are all proper size.
This was set to maxcpu which in an 8 core box would be 8, each project would then spawn
8 instances of cl.exe, making a possible of 64 simultaneously running compiler instances
slowing the compile down instead of speeding it up.
We unfortunately cannot fix this for previous versions of Blender, but
at least the issue (Blender crashing on unknown IDProp types) should now
be addressed for future.
Simply reset unknown IDProp types to integer one, and reset its value to zero.
Previously, every RenderPass would have a bitfield that specified its type. That limits the number of passes to 32, which was reached a while ago.
However, most of the code already supported arbitrary RenderPasses since they were also used to store Multilayer EXR images.
Therefore, this commit completely removes the passflag from RenderPass and changes all code to use the unique pass name for identification.
Since Blender Internal relies on hardcoded passes and to preserve compatibility, 32 pass names are reserved for the old hardcoded passes.
To support these arbitrary passes, the Render Result compositor node now adds dynamic sockets. For compatibility, the old hardcoded sockets are always stored and just hidden when the corresponding pass isn't available.
To use these changes, the Render Engine API now includes a function that allows render engines to add arbitrary passes to the render result. To be able to add options for these passes, addons can now add their own properties to SceneRenderLayers.
To keep the compositor input node updated, render engine plugins have to implement a callback that registers all the passes that will be generated.
From a user perspective, nothing should change with this commit.
