This change introduces a new hysteresis parameter that it will be added
or subtracted to/from the LOD distance to avoid popping when a LOD
object moves close to the LOD transition continuously.
Then, we have the following:
- a new LOD Hysteresis setting per scene (default 10%) which is located
in Scene context --> Level of Detail panel. This scene parameter also
will active/deactive the scene hysteresis.
- and a new LOD Hysteresis setting per object (default 10%) which is
located in Object context --> Levels of Detail panel. The LOD hysteresis
setting per object (if active) will overwrite the hysteresis setting per
scene value.
For the new blends: the hysteresis setting per scene would be active by
default and the per object would be inactive by default.
For the old blends: both hysteresis settings (per scene and per object)
would be inactive by default. A quick way to take advantage of this
feature for old blends would be to activate the hysteresis parameter in
the scene context -> Level of Detail panel

New Lock Z velocity parameter was added. This parameter avoid the micro-jumping.
By default it is actived except when you load an old file that it is deactived to keep former behaviour.
Additionally it was solved another issue related with the acceleration: That is the acceleration value was not taked into account and we had always the maximum linear velocity from the beginning of movement. Now the acceleration is taken into account until we reach the maximum velocity.
When you load an old file, the acceleration value is set to the maximum range (1000.f). This way we simulate a maximum velocity constant from the beginning of movement (former behaviour).

Originally the files are coming from ancient early-2.4x epoch, but in
theory such setups might have been re-saved multiple times already with
more recent blender versions.
So the verisoning code is applied on all the files, including very
recent ones.
Bumped subversion, because this check si not really cheap.
This commit introduces a few ready made effects for the 3D viewport
and OpenGL rendering.
Included effects are Depth of Field, accessible from camera view
and screen space ambient occlusion. Those effects can be turned on and
tweaked from the shading panel in the 3D viewport.
Off screen rendering will use the settings of the current camera.

Bookmarks are now editable (i.e. you can rename them, and reorder them).
They are also listed in regular UILists, so you can filter/sort them as usual too.
Also, FileBrowser 'T' side area is changed to something similar to 3DView one,
in this case because we need op panel to remain at the bottom, and later because
we'll more than likely need tabs here!
Thanks to Campbell and Sergey for reviews.

This is the core code for it, tools (datatransfer and modifier) will come in next commits).
RNA api is already there, though.
See the code for details, but basically, we define, for each 'smooth fan'
(which is a set of adjacent loops around a same vertex that are smooth, i.e. have a single same normal),
a 'loop normal space' (or lnor space), using auto-computed normal and relevant edges, and store
custom normal as two angular factors inside that space. This allows to have custom normals
'following' deformations of the geometry, and to only save two shorts per loop in new clnor CDLayer.
Normal manipulation (editing, mixing, interpolating, etc.) shall always happen with plain 3D vectors normals,
and be converted back into storage format at the end.
Clnor computation has also been threaded (at least for Mesh case, not for BMesh), since the process can
be rather heavy with high poly meshes.
Also, bumping subversion, and fix mess in 2.70 versioning code.
Quite striaghtforward change, and in theory we can even try supporting motion
blur for the corner pin node (which is tricky because coordinates actually
coming from sockets, but with some black magic should be doable).
- Add falloff types & curves (matching warp-modifier)
- Add uniform scale option,
important when adding hooks to non-uniform scaled objects,
especially for use with lattice objects which can't avoid uneven scaling.
This uses relative transformation set when the hook is assigned,
when measuring the distances.
This adds another level of clumping on child hairs. When enabled, child
hairs chose a secondary clumping target using a Voronoi pattern. This
adds visual detail on a smaller scale, which is useful particularly when
the number of parents is relatively small.
Natural fibres behave in a similar way when they become sticky and
intertwined. Hairs close to each other form a first twisted strand, then
combine into larger strands. Similar features can be found in ropes:

This commit includes a few things:
* It moves the Rake and Random flags from the brush to the MTex.
* The first change allows mask textures to have independent rake
support.
* Random rotation now has an angle value that controls the width of the
effect from the rake or default angle
* Rake and Random are now supported together.
Features:
* Both still image and animation rendering, as well as polygon
fills are supported.
* The exporter creates a new SVG layer for every Freestyle line
set. The different layers are correctly sorted.
* SVG paths use data from line styles, so the base color of a
line style becomes the color of paths, idem for dashes and
stroke thickness.
* Strokes can be split at invisible parts. This functionality is
useful when exporting for instance dashed lines or line styles
with a Blue Print shader
* The exporter can be used not only in the Parameter Editor mode,
but also from within style modules written for the Python
Scripting mode.

Make sure the 1.0 value is not affected by smoothing, and min/max limits
never go above or below 1.0 respectively. This was a request by
animators since not modifying the mesh in its rest pose is regarded as
crucial.
The issue was caused by the fact that we never used to store the
generated image color in DNA, so image reload will loose this
information.
Now we store the color in DNA, making ti so re-loading the image
will preserve it's generated color.
It is now also possible to change generated image color using the
color swatch in image properties after the image was created.
Yep, at last it's here!
There are a few minor issues remaining but development can go on in
master after discussion at blender institute.

Thanks to Sergey and Campbell for the extensive review and to the
countless artists that have given their input and reported issues during
development.
This is related to Task T34861 to increase up & track axis options for TrackTo actuator. I've just added it to differential to facilitate an easier review.
With the patch applied you can select X, Y and Z axis for the Up axis, and X, Y, Z, -X, -Y and -Z for the track axis.
Related to the implementation I have used the algorithm from Trackto constrain placed in constrain.c but adapted to be used with MOTO library.
The wiki docs are here (http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Lordloki/Doc:2.6/Manual/Game_Engine/Logic/Actuators/Edit_Object#Trackto_Actuator).
Test file is here: {F97623}
I have also uploaded 2 screenshots showing the UI modifications to the TrackTo actuator:

New properties 'line_color' and 'line_priority' are added to Material ID data blocks.
The 'line_color' property allows users to specify a per-material line color that can be
used as a Freestyle line color through Material color modifiers of line style settings.
The new line color property is intended to provide a solution for line color
stylization when a proper Freestyle support for Cycles is implemented (likely
as part of the upcoming Blender 2.72 release; see Patch D632). Materials in
Cycles are usually set up using shader nodes, and Freestyle won't be capable
of retrieving colors and other properties from node-based materials any soon.
The new line color property of materials addresses this foreseen limitation by
providing artists with an intuitive alternative mean to specify line colors on a
per-material basis independently from node trees.
The 'line_priority' property gives users a way to control line colors at material
boundaries. When a line is drawn along a feature edge at material boundaries,
one of the two materials on both sides of the edge has to be picked up to
determine the line color. So far there was no way to control this selection
(which was in effect at random). Now the material with a higher line color
priority will be selected.
The new per-material line settings are shown in the new Freestyle Line tab in
the Material context of the Properties window (only when Freestyle is enabled).
To get the versioning code properly work, the condition should have been:
DNA_struct_elem_find(fd->filesdna, "FreestyleLineStyle", "MTex", "*mtex[18]")
The present commit uses another new structure member instead, to avoid referring
to the magic number 18 in the last string literal.
New operator that can calls a bake function to the current render engine when available. This commit provides no feature for the users, but allows external engines to be accessed by the operator and be integrated with the baking api.
The API itself is simple. Blender sends a populated array of BakePixels to the renderer, and gets back an array of floats with the result.
The Blender Internal (and multires) system is still running independent, but we eventually will pipe it through the API as well. Cycles baking will come next as a separated commit
Python Operator:
----------------
The operator can be called with some arguments, or a user interface can be created for it. In that case the arguments can be ommited and the interface can expose the settings from bpy.context.scene.render.bake
bpy.ops.object.bake(type='COMBINED', filepath="", width=512, height=512, margin=16, use_selected_to_active=False, cage_extrusion=0, cage="", normal_space='TANGENT', normal_r='POS_X', normal_g='POS_Y', normal_b='POS_Z', save_mode='INTERNAL', use_clear=False, use_split_materials=False, use_automatic_name=False)
Note: external save mode is currently disabled.
Supported Features:
------------------
* Margin - Baked result is extended this many pixels beyond the border of each UV "island," to soften seams in the texture.
* Selected to Active - bake shading on the surface of selected object to the active object. The rays are cast from the lowpoly object inwards towards the highpoly object. If the highpoly object is not entirely involved by the lowpoly object, you can tweak the rays start point with Cage Extrusion. For even more control of the cage you can use a Cage object.
* Cage Extrusion - distance to use for the inward ray cast when using selected to active
* Custom Cage - object to use as cage (instead of the lowpoly object).
* Normal swizzle - change the axis that gets mapped to RGB
* Normal space - save as tangent or object normal spaces
Supported Passes:
-----------------
Any pass that is supported by Blender renderlayer system. Though it's up to the external engine to provide a valid enum with its supported passes. Normal passes get a special treatment since we post-process them to converted and "swizzled"
Development Notes for External Engines:
---------------------------------------
(read them in bake_api.c)
* For a complete implementation example look at the Cycles Bake commit (next).
