Move two settings that were previously in the "View" menu of the Graph Editor into User Preferences.
It has been mentioned in the meeting by Luciano Muñoz Sessarego that it would be good to move that to the preferences so you can set it once and then forget about it.
The Settings moved are:
Only Selected Curve Keyframes
Use High Quality Display

Currently the shade smooth status for mesh faces is stored as part of
`MPoly::flag`. As described in #95967, this moves that information
to a separate boolean attribute. It also flips its status, so the
attribute is now called `sharp_face`, which mirrors the existing
`sharp_edge` attribute. The attribute doesn't need to be allocated
when all faces are smooth. Forward compatibility is kept until
4.0 like the other mesh refactors.
This will reduce memory bandwidth requirements for some operations,
since the array of booleans uses 12 times less memory than `MPoly`.
It also allows faces to be stored more efficiently in the future, since
the flag is now unused. It's also possible to use generic functions to
process the values. For example, finding whether there is a sharp face
is just `sharp_faces.contains(true)`.
The `shade_smooth` attribute is no longer accessible with geometry nodes.
Since there were dedicated accessor nodes for that data, that shouldn't
be a problem. That's difficult to version automatically since the named
attribute nodes could be used in arbitrary combinations.
**Implementation notes:**
- The attribute and array variables in the code use the `sharp_faces`
term, to be consistent with the user-facing "sharp faces" wording,
and to avoid requiring many renames when #101689 is implemented.
- Cycles now accesses smooth face status with the generic attribute,
to avoid overhead.
- Changing the zero-value from "smooth" to "flat" takes some care to
make sure defaults are the same.
- Versioning for the edge mode extrude node is particularly complex.
New nodes are added by versioning to propagate the attribute in its
old inverted state.
- A lot of access is still done through the `CustomData` API rather
than the attribute API because of a few functions. That can be
cleaned up easily in the future.
- In the future we would benefit from a way to store attributes as a
single value for when all faces are sharp.

When trying to use the Fill Range by Selection operator, in the
Distance from Camera Freestyle modifier, the operator fails if no
camera is active in the scene.
Before getting the data from the camera, check that it is defined, and
return otherwise.

Hello, this is a small PR to check that my understanding of #102427 is correct before moving on to the rest of the issue.
This PR contains the updated UI of the `Sculpt` menu only. Other menus will be submitted for review later.
Currently exposed operators:
* Move
* Rotate
* Scale
* Box Trim (Trim Mode ="Difference")
* Lasso Trim (Trim Mode ="Difference")
* Box Add (Trim Mode ="Join")
* Lasso Add (Trim Mode ="Join")
* Line Project
* Smooth
* Surface Smooth
* ~~Scale (Could be left out?)~~
* Inflate
* Random
* Relax Topology
* Relax Face Set Boundaries
* Sharpen
* Enhance Details
* Erase Displacement
The original issue specifies `Relax Face Set Boundaries` and `Erase Displacement`. I'm not quite sure if this is done in the UI code or somewhere else.

Indicating light colors by coloring the light icons.
Task: #104280
Pull Request: #105236
- Added a checkbox under overlay extra to enable/disable light coloring. Disabled by default.
- The outer ring and the sun rays are colored.
- Only the base color is shown, colors in nodes are not considered.
Since db6287873cd2, we added parenting (Keep Transform Without Inverse)
to the parent_set operator and exposed this in the UI in the invoke menu
of that operator.
This however never made it to the `Object` > `Parent` menu.
Since this is quite useful (and otherwise a bit hidden in the Adjust
Last Operation panel) and parent inverse can cause confusion in many
cases (see e.g. #105276 or #103969), now add this as an explicit entry
in the `Object` > `Parent` menu as well.
- "Lines" in the sense of number of lines
- "Number" can mean "amount, count" or "index, offset"
- "Second" can be an ordinal number or a unit
- "Root": add the brush curve to the "square root falloff" sense
- "Strip" can be a sequence or a type of hair rendering
- "Constant" in the sense of a value, for the Geometry Nodes add
submenu (#105447).
Additionally, extract:
- "Press a key" from the Keymap preferences.
- "MaskLayer", upon new mask layer creation

This has the effect that the message is cut off at the end of the
first line. I copied the solution from other similar docstrings
elsewhere in the code.
As far as my regex-fu can tell, there are no other occurrences of this
in the codebase.

Address some issues discussed in PR #104404:
- Vertex color options changed to None/sRGB/Linear, default is sRGB
to match the existing Python addon.
- Change name to "Stanford PLY" from "PLY" in the menu item.
- Default "Export UVs" to on.
- After importing vertex colors, they are set as enabled for render.
New (experimental) Stanford PLY importer and exporter written in C++.
Handles: vertices, faces, edges, vertex colors, normals, UVs. Both
binary and ASCII formats are supported.
Usually 10-20x faster than the existing Python based PLY
importer/exporter.
Additional notes compared to the previous Python addon:
- Importing point clouds with vertex colors now works
- Importing PLY files with non standard line endings
- Exporting multiple objects (previous exporter didn't take the vertex
indices into account)
- The importer has the option to merge vertices
- The exporter supports exporting loose edges and vertices along with
UV map data

The code of the 'Fix Deforms' operator was hard to read and inefficient, doing `O(num_vertices * num_vertex_groups)` evaluations of the mesh. It caused multiple issues and got in the way of improvements to Blender, and seems to be used very little (if ever).
It was decided in [last week's module meeting](https://devtalk.blender.org/t/2023-02-23-animation-rigging-meeting/27757#patch-review-decision-time-5) that this operator should be removed.

Pull Request #104473
This commit adds the default .usdz export capability.
The importer already supports usdz so no change is required other than updating the text in menu to match the updated exporter text.
On export, a .usd/a/c file has to be created first, and then converted to .usdz. A weird change of directory is required because of a quirk with the USD conversion to usdz. If an absolute filepath is passed into the `UsdUtilsCreateNewUsdzPackage` function, the usd files inside the usdz archive will have the same directory structure, i.e. if one tries to create a file at `C:\code\BlenderProjects\file.usdz`, when the usdz file is created, inside it will have the structure `\code\BlenderProjects\file.usdc`.
This is counteracted by setting the current working directory to the temporary session directory where both the usdc and usdz files are created, and just passing the file name to `UsdUtilsCreateNewUsdzPackage` without any filepath. Once the usdz file is created it is moved to the intended directory.
There is a separate `UsdUtilsCreateNewARKitUsdzPackage` capability for exporting usdz for iOS devices that will be implemented in a follow up patch as it will require some more small UI changes.

Pull Request #105185, based on #104556.
In curves edit mode, the "Move Texture Space" and "Scale Texture Space"
operators where shown in the "Curves > Transform" menu.
Since these are not implemented, the fix removes these operators
from the menu.
The translation contexts module wasn't imported after c7611d61e8,
which caused an error and prevented some constraints' UI from being
displayed.

Before that patch, the slider operators for the Graph Editor are not easily accessible since they don't have a hotkey.
This adds the "d" hotkey for the already existing slider operator menu.
Using the popup menu means that your last used operator will always be under the cursor, so it's quick to access.

This commit implements described in the #104573.
The goal is to fix the confusion of the submodule hashes change, which are not
ideal for any of the supported git-module configuration (they are either always
visible causing confusion, or silently staged and committed, also causing
confusion).
This commit replaces submodules with a checkout of addons and addons_contrib,
covered by the .gitignore, and locale and developer tools are moved to the
main repository.
This also changes the paths:
- /release/scripts are moved to the /scripts
- /source/tools are moved to the /tools
- /release/datafiles/locale is moved to /locale
This is done to avoid conflicts when using bisect, and also allow buildbot to
automatically "recover" wgen building older or newer branches/patches.
Running `make update` will initialize the local checkout to the changed
repository configuration.
Another aspect of the change is that the make update will support Github style
of remote organization (origin remote pointing to thy fork, upstream remote
pointing to the upstream blender/blender.git).
