While the feature is interesting, it's not much from what we can tell.
Retargeting is an important feature but needs
to fit in better with typical animation work-flows.
See: T52809
The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

A user doesn't want to necessarily create a new Screen only because she
wants a new window.
This patch allows the user to pick the screen to use for the new Window.
If the screen picked is the active one, it duplicates it (as the old
behaviour in Blender).

The issue was introduced by 4df75e5 and seems we just need to explicitly
add new keymap item now.
There is still some difference from old behavior, which is planar transform
is using precision movement since e138cde and here i don't see nice solution
currently: the change was requested here in the studio and it's just a
conflict in picking shift key for something which is not supposed to be
accurate.
At least now it's possible to invoke planar constraint and simply unhold
shift.

User Commit Log
---------------
* New Layer and Collection system to replace render layers and viewport layers.
* A layer is a set of collections of objects (and their drawing options) required for specific tasks.
* A collection is a set of objects, equivalent of the old layers in Blender. A collection can be shared across multiple layers.
* All Scenes have a master collection that all other collections are children of.
* New collection "context" tab (in Properties Editor)
* New temporary viewport "collections" panel to control per-collection
visibility
Missing User Features
---------------------
* Collection "Filter"
Option to add objects based on their names
* Collection Manager operators
The existing buttons are placeholders
* Collection Manager drawing
The editor main region is empty
* Collection Override
* Per-Collection engine settings
This will come as a separate commit, as part of the clay-engine branch
Dev Commit Log
--------------
* New DNA file (DNA_layer_types.h) with the new structs
We are replacing Base by a new extended Base while keeping it backward
compatible with some legacy settings (i.e., lay, flag_legacy).
Renamed all Base to BaseLegacy to make it clear the areas of code that
still need to be converted
Note: manual changes were required on - deg_builder_nodes.h, rna_object.c, KX_Light.cpp
* Unittesting for main syncronization requirements
- read, write, add/copy/remove objects, copy scene, collection
link/unlinking, context)
* New Editor: Collection Manager
Based on patch by Julian Eisel
This is extracted from the layer-manager branch. With the following changes:
- Renamed references of layer manager to collections manager
- I doesn't include the editors/space_collections/ draw and util files
- The drawing code itself will be implemented separately by Julian
* Base / Object:
A little note about them. Original Blender code would try to keep them
in sync through the code, juggling flags back and forth. This will now
be handled by Depsgraph, keeping Object and Bases more separated
throughout the non-rendering code.
Scene.base is being cleared in doversion, and the old viewport drawing
code was poorly converted to use the new bases while the new viewport
code doesn't get merged and replace the old one.

Our current keymap doesn't give us enough room to make such changes in
the event system. To fix small issues caused by this, we would need to do
drastic changes in Blender's keymaps and internal handling. It was worth
a try, but it didn't work.
I can write down a more descriptive statement in a few days, but for now
I need a break of this stuff.
Alt+Mousewheel was used for frame scrubbing which isn't really good as users
may often use this by accident while using Alt for Viewport navigation.
Frame scrubbing/frame_offset() is now called by Ctrl+Alt+Mousewheel (shift +
Mousewheel was already used for scrolling up/down)
Basically the title tells it all, quite straightforward implementation.
The only thing is the image.render_slot which used to represent the active
render slot index is now moved to image.render_slots.active_index.

- Get rid of the obsolete operator
- Use select_or_deselect_all in 3ds keymap, which performs better
than separate deselect all and select binded to the select mouse.
This was already done for maya, and seems was accidentally reverted
by 5a91db3d.
In fact, armature layers operators (set layers, and show all) were kind of messy and broken
in Edit mode (Select layers had two different operators for Pose and Edit modes, both
using the same funcs that could only work in Pose mode, Show All was supposed to be
used in both modes but again, its exec code could only work in Pose one).
Fixed that by:
* Using only one op for each task, for both modes (with adapted poll func).
* Replacing 'object from context' access by an helper that returns the right Armature
object in both Edit and Pose modes.
Was a shortcut conflict with unwrap. Use 'U' for unwrap now, so no conflict is here.
Preset still doesn't work tho, Cambo need to solve missing operators used here since
NDOF changes.
fix as suggested by Ton Roosendaal in tracker:
"the knife tool has a "MODE_PANNING" state, it could be nice to set this
in the modal map as well, to define the shortcut(s) that have to be passed on."
Was missing keymap for REGION_TIMER, which ended up
in missing updates happening.
Added this kind of timer to RNA, so keymaps could
bind to it.
Also made 3ds max keymap working again. Too bad it
was broken in 2.67 and 2.67a :S
Two main things:
- Made a python operator for selection in a viewport
which will de-select everything if nothing is under
the mouse.
To do so needed to modify VIEW3D_OT_select, so invoke
sets mouse location which is later used by exec
function.
This way it's possible to select stuff from python
defined operator.
Not best-ever solution since ideally exec() shall not
do OpenGL stuff, but we've got this issue in some
other operators. We'll solve this later.
- Used a keymap from Gianmichele Mariani as a reference,
updated his keymap to latest changes in operators.
We shall match Maya keymap much better now, thanks
for the keymap dude!
Made it so loop/ring selection are assigned to RELEASE button,
so they're not conflicting with regular selection.
There's still seems to be a conflict between loop and ring
selection, but it was here for ages and that's another story.
The way it works now is:
- Border select is using TWEAK, for which you need to hold LMB down
and move mouse. This prevents operators using RELEASE/CLICK events
from being fired.
- LMB select is using RELEASE event, this is no selection happens
before border if you do border select. And this prevents any
operator uses CLICK event from being fired.
- Delect all happens by CLICK, which would be fired only in case no
operators were handled with PRESS/RELEASE.
This is a bit cards-house, but this is how events currently works and
wouldn't want inventing something bigger now.
