Further more, it prevented clearing the usercount on write, which can be

This patch exposes the Cycles Alembic Procedural through the MeshSequenceCache
modifier in order to use and test it from Blender.
To enable it, one has to switch the render feature set to experimental and
activate the Procedural in the modifier. An Alembic Procedural is then
created for each CacheFile from Blender set to use the Procedural, and each
Blender object having a MeshSequenceCache modifier is added to list of objects
of the right procedural.
The procedural's parameters derive from the CacheFile's properties which are
already exposed in the UI through the modifier, although more Cycles specific
options might be added in the future.
As there is currently no cache controls and since we load all the data at the
beginning of the render session, the procedural is only available during
viewport renders at the moment. When an Alembic procedural is rendered, data
from the archive are not read on the Blender side.
If a Cycles render is not active and the CacheFile is set to use the Cycles Procedural,
bounding boxes are used to display the objects in the scene as a signal that the
objects are not processed by Blender anymore. This is standard in other DCCs.
However this does not reduce the memory usage from Blender as the Alembic data
was already loaded either during an import or during a .blend file read.
This is mostly a hack to test the Cycles Alembic procedural until we have a
better Blender side mechanism for letting renderers load their own geometry,
which will be based on import and export settings on Collections (T68933).

Embedded IDs (root nodetrees, master collection, etc.) pointer itself is
not editable, but their content may be overridden.
LibOverride code is supposed to know how to handle those embedded IDs.
Removes the artificial requirement that UDIM tile sets start at 1001.
Blender was already capable of handling sparse tile sets (non-contiguous
tiles) so the restriction around starting at 1001 was unnecessary in
general.
This required fixing a few UDIM-related python bugs around manually
updating the `tile_number` field on images as well. See the differential
for details. No script changes are necessary but they will now work,
correctly, in many more cases.

When adding a range of tiles, the operator could incorrectly calculate

IMA_UDIM_MAX value was 1 too small. This is most noticeable when

The duration and start time for audio strips were not correctly read in
audaspace.
Some video files have a "lead in" section of audio that plays before the
video starts playing back. Before this patch, we would play this lead in
audio at the same time as the video started and thus the audio would not
be in sync anymore.
Now the lead in audio is cut off and the duration should be correctly
calculated with this in mind.
If the audio starts after the video, the audio strip is shifted to
account for this, but it will also lead to cut off audio which might not
be wanted. However we don't have a simple way to solve this at this
point.

Add a debug-only check regarding consistency of the cache (mapping from
objects to their bases) for a given ViewLayer.
Issues can happen otherwise when some code does remapping of objects,
and forgets to call `BKE_main_collection_sync_remap()` (which clears
those caches) instead of `BKE_main_collection_sync()`.
This reverts commit 41e6509818.

This supported calculating normals for MPoly array which was copied to
an MFace aligned array.
Remove the functions entirely since MFace use is being phased out and
these function isn't used anywhere.
Use BKE_mesh_calc_normals instead of
BKE_mesh_calc_normals_mapping_simple for curve modifier calculation.
This only made sense for derived-mesh which is no longer used.
Remove the 'only_face_normals' argument.
- BKE_mesh_calc_normals_poly for polygon normals.
- BKE_mesh_calc_normals_poly_and_vertex for poly and vertex normals.
Order arguments logically:
- Pair array and length arguments.
- Position normal array arguments (to be filled) last.
Optimize mesh normal calculation.
- Remove the intermediate `lnors_weighted` array, accumulate directly
into the normal array using a spin-lock for thread safety.
- Remove single threaded iteration over loops
(normal calculation is now fully multi-threaded).
- Remove stack array (alloca) for pre-calculating edge-directions.
Summary of Performance Characteristics:
- The largest gains are for single high poly meshes, with isolated
normal-calculation benchmarks of meshes over ~1.5 million showing
2x+ speedup, ~25 million polygons are ~2.85x faster.
- Single lower poly meshes (250k polys) can be ~2x slower.
Since these meshes aren't normally a bottleneck,
and this problem isn't noticeable on large scenes,
we considered the performance trade-off reasonable.
- The performance difference reduces with larger scenes,
tests with production files from "Sprite Fight" showing
the same or slightly better overall performance.
NOTE: tested on a AMD Ryzen TR 3970X 32-Core.

Add Apply Constraint, Duplicate Constraint, and Copy To Selected
operators, and include them in a menu similar to the menu for modifiers.
The shortcuts in the extras menu are also matched to modifiers.
All the here added operators are intended to work exactly like the
analogous ones for modifiers. That means the apply operator should apply
a constraint as if it was first in the list, just like modifiers do. I
have added the same warning message as for modifiers when that happens.
The decision to use this approach of appling the constraint as if it was
first, was made for consistency with modifiers. People are already used
to how it works there. Is also provides more intricate control over the
applied transforms, then just applying all constraints up to that one.
Apply all constraints is already kinda implemented in Bake Animation.

Idea for 3.0 is to disable all functionality that isn't well polished
and focus on those parts first. Starting with poses.
* Adds a new experimental option "Extended Asset Browser", replacing
"Asset Browser".
* Unlike the previous option, this isn't enabled by default anymore.
This didn't work well in practice and caused plenty of confusion.
* "Mark as Asset" and "Clear Asset" are hidden if the option is
disabled.
* Same for the category selection in the Asset Browser.
* Always show display the "Only Assets" option in the File Browser while
browing inside .blend files. That way you can hide data-blocks that
are not pose assets.
* The Asset Library setup UI in the Preferences is always visible now,
it's needed for pose library access.

it is usually best to combine location, rotation and scale
separately, which is implemented by the Split Channels modes
recently introduced in D9469 for Copy Transforms. This completes

The default for new constraints is changed to the newly

an addon that does the equivalent of this feature by splitting
the action into two, separating location and rotation+scale.
