The feature is hidden behind an experimental option, you'll have to
enable it in the preferences to try it.
This feature is not yet considered fully stable, crashes may happen, as
well as .blend file corruptions (very unlikely, but still possible).
In a nutshell, the ideas behind this code are to:
* Detect unchanged IDs across an undo step.
* Reuse as much as possible existing IDs memory, even when its content
did change.
* Re-use existing depsgraphs instead of building new ones from scratch.
* Store accumulated recalc flags, to avoid needless re-compute of things
that did not change, when the ID itself is detected as modified.
See T60695 and D6580 for more technical details.
This option existed already and was just hidden in the UI. With the new fluids system though, it will only be used for rendering - and not to optimize the cache.
This commit adds 7 themes submitted by the community on Devtalk. These themes both serve specific purposes, provide a greater variety in look & feel, and serve as welcoming homes for users coming on board from other packages. This is the initial commit, but these themes can be continuously updated over time to fix issues and keep them up to date with changes.
Thanks to all contributors, and in particular the makes of the picked themes: Pierre Schiller, Edward Agwi, Vojtěch Lacina, Michail Soluyanov, Jason van Gumster, Mr Wax Police & Jonathan Lampel.
An overview is here: https://developer.blender.org/T74360
- Remove Shift for drawing poly-lines, just as in the default keymap
- Use consistent hotkeys for size and strength radial controls
- Fix some bugs/missing items from the GP merge
- Add icons for Sculpt Cloth, Clay Thumb and Draw Face Sets, as well as GP Tint, Replace and Transform Fill tools
- Tweak icons for Sculpt Rotate, Pinch, Multiplane Scrape, Inflate, Blob, Draw Sharp, based on feedback on Devtalk
Both are doing almost the same and can be merged. This reduce complexity for user and less code to maintain.

This extends the ocean modifier to add new spectra
(Pierson-Moskowitz, Jonswap, TMA).
These models are very different to the Phillips spectrum.
They are intended for more established,
large area, oceans and/or shallow water situations.
Update Dopesheet header to include missing buttons, remove Scene Active only buttton and also removed duplicated search box.
The removed options come from old 2.7x version and they are not required now.

The Extrapolation Mode menu in the graph editor channel list was
incorrectly using the operator for the Action/Dopesheet editor. The
operator was even missing in the generic dopesheet hotkeys, so
{key Shift E} was listed as hotkey but didn't work. This is now all
fixed.
EasingType was implemented rBdaccaa713b6e for the GraphEditor (but never
made it to the Dopesheet). If you can select Easing Mode in the
DopeSheet, then you should also be able to select the associated Easing
Type.
Thanks @lichtwerk for the initial implementation.

When scaling the root bone of a rig to apply a global scale, the
corrective smooth modifier results in wrong deformation due to incorrect
scaling. The delta calculations are not taking into account any scale
value.
To fix it, a scale property is added to the modifier, allowing to set
manually the scale value for the deltas by simply multiplying the
vectors by this value. There is a similar implementation in Maya's Delta
Mush deformer. This property can be for example driven by the scale of
the root bone of the rig, to dynamically update when the animator scale
this bone.

This automasking option protects the open boundary edges of the mesh from the brush deformation. This is needed to sculpt cloths and it works nicely with the cloth brush.
It has a Propagation Steps property that controls the falloff of the mask from the edge.
Limitations:
- The automask is recalculated at the beginning of each stroke, creating a little bit of lag in high poly meshes, but it is not necessary. This can be fixed in the future by caching the edge distances, increasing a little bit the complexity of the code.
- The boundary vertex detection in meshes is not ideal and it fails with triangulated geometry, but it is the same as in the smooth brush. After fixing this, we should refactor the smooth brush to use the API and let the automasking option manually control the affected vertices.
- It does not work in Multires (it needs to be implemented in the API). The smooth brush in Multires is also not making boundary vertices.
- The falloff has a visible line artifact on grid patterns. We can smooth the final automasking factors several iterations, but it will make the initialization much slower. This can also be added in the future if we decided to cache the distances.

This allows deleting both collections and objects in the outliner
selection at the same time. This only works using the keyboard shortcuts
(X or Delete).
While this works, a more robust solution should be implemented later to
allow deleting the whole selection from the context menu as well.

Since hair collisions were integrated with the cloth solver
(rBd42a7bbd6ea5), there are a couple of relevant settings which were not
exposed to the User:
- Collision Quality
- Minimum Distance (this was reported in T73842, default of 0.015m was
still limiting in certain scenarios - this can now be made smaller)
- Impulse clamping
- Collision collection
This will add a 'Collisions' panel to Hair Dynamics with those settings
Note: in contrast to 'real' cloth, self-collisions are not supported for
hair

- Keymap items now have 'repeat' boolean which can be set
to make keymap items respond to key repeat events or not.
- Support for X11 & WIN32 (not macOS currently).
This allows for the possibility to perform actions while a key is held
and finish the action upon release.
Thanks to @Severin for review and WIN32 support.
Face Sets are the new system to control the visibility state of the mesh in sculpt and paint modes. They are designed to work in modes where brushes are the primary way of interaction and they provide much more control when working with meshes with complex shapes and overlapping surfaces.
This initial commit includes:
- Sculpt Face Sets data structures and PBVH rendering.
- Face Set overlay and opacity controls.
- Sculpt Undo support.
- Remesher reprojection support. The visibility state of the mesh is also preserved when remeshing.
- Automasking and Mesh filter support.
- Mask expand operator mode to expand Face Sets (Shift + W) and flood fill areas by connectivity (press Ctrl while expanding).
- Sculpt Mode Face Sets and Visibility API.
- Sculpt Face Sets creation and visibility management operators.
- Operator to randomize the Face Sets colors.
- Draw Face Sets brush tool to create and edit the Face Sets. Drawing on the mesh creates a new Face Set. Pressing Ctrl before drawing modifies the Face Set under the brush at the beginning of the stroke.
- Updated keymap and menu to work with Face Sets from Sculpt Mode (H to toggle visibility, Alt + H to show all, Shit + H to hide).
- Pie menu on the W key with Face common Sets operations.
Know limitations:
- Multires support. The Face Sets and Visibility API needs to be implemented for Multires.

Instead of manually updating the URL every release we can do this.
