Multires interpolation now works on cases like
simple cubes. (though it isn't perfect
when bevelling sharp corners).
Normal flipping is handled correctly, and
multires interpolation now works on
normal-inconsistent meshes (so long as
they are manifold, at least).
Multires interpolation is considerably better
now, though it still has a problem with occasionally
producing little random tangent spikes. Still, it's
far better then it was.
Also fixed a bug in dissolve faces.
Improved edge subdivide. The last tool panel
is a bit clearer, with a "quad/tri" checkbox
(that, in addition to turning on the old
singe-edge-triangluation feature also
automatically switches cornervert to Inner Vert
if it is Straight, to avoid producing ngons).
I also rewrote fractal to be more likes its name, and
removed the "smoothness" parameter (which never
worked, anyway, even in trunk). Also removed the
grid fill paramter, it wasn't all that useful.
Bevel! Implemented bevel (from scratch). Man is
this tool way cooler then I thought it was. Note that
uv/vcol interpolation is working (loop level data) but
vert/edge data (like vgroups) likely still needs
work.
Implemented a new "super knife". Activate with k. Holding CTRL
will allow extended cutting ala old lines mode. Confirm with enter
and escape. You cannot cancel, btw, you can only confirm (and undo
later if you want). Hopefully I'll support undo within the tool soon.
* Supports cutting edges, into faces, etc. You can pretty much do whatever
you want. Will snap to vertices too.
* Note that if you cut into a face, it must be valid topologically when
you press enter to confirm.
* It's pretty and graphical :)
* You can only cut visible geometry.
* UVs/vcols are a little buggy still
Now, thou shalt all cease and desist all lack of motivation for
testing! No longer shall users put off testing until "it's cooler"!
:P

First pass at post-merge stabilization. Seems to work well enough now, but
I need to do more testing. Also need to go through bmesh_class.h and make
sure the design/headers there make sense.
I've removed editmesh altogether (other then scanfill, which is
seperate code that happens to reuse the editmesh structures).
The compatibility layer I had written for old editmesh tools
was more trouble then it was worth, though it did help in the
early stages of this project.
There's a fair amount of breakage, and there's bunches of tools
(mostly minor ones) I need to port over still. Biggest ones are
join triangles and loop to region, and spin/screw.
This probably isn't really testable, I'll hopefully have more
work done on this soon, but might not be before next week.
Most likely will not compile for others, I'd appreciate any build errors
and missing files reports (I can never seem to get everything committed
and all the build systems working without help).
Porting over the sculpt/multires tools was a breeze,
thanks goes to brecht for a design that didn't exclude
ngons and was easy to port.
Note that I've not tested externally-backed multires
file support yet. Also, I still need to write version
patch code for some cases.
Some notes:
* Like trunk, topological changes don't update multires right,
so e.g. subdivide will duplicate multires data on the new faces,
instead of subdividing it.
* If you set the debug value (ctrl-alt-d) to 1 it'll turn on
my experiments in speeding up sculpting on higher-res multires
meshes (but note it makes partial redraw not completely accurate).
* There's a bug where you have to go through editmode to get out
of sculpt mode, not sure if I inherited or created this myself.
