Warning!
Angles in nodes have just been moved to consistant Radians values (ANGLE subtype of RNA Float property). You will still see them as degrees in the GUI, though, unless you chose otherwise in Scene properties, Units panel.
Conversion from degrees to radians for old files is obviously done at loading time, but if you use a mixed pipeline of trunk and releases, be carefull!
Loading a 2.60.4 file (or higher) into any previous version of Blender, your angles in nodes will have odd values (well, radians interpreted as degrees)!
And if you save such file in a pre-2.60.4 version, the angle node values will be converted again when loaded in Blender 2.60.4 or higher...
This affects following nodes:
* Compo: Rotate, Defocus, ChromaMatte, Glare and DirectionalBlur
* Shader: Mapping
And all future code using the TexMapping struct’s rotation part (its rot memember is now in radians).
ColorMapping struct for color manipulation of textures. These will be the
standard built-in texture node options for manipulating the incoming texture
coordinate and outgoing color.
- rename define DISABLE_SDL --> WITH_SDL (which was already used in some places)
- blenders interation preset was using orbit rather then turntable 3d view preference (different from factory defaults).
- tagged some unused rna args.

This patch makes the following improvements to environment map scripting:
* Adds a "is_valid" RNA property to envmaps. True if the map is ready for use, False if it needs rendering.
* Adds a "clear" RNA function to envmaps. Deletes any envmap image data.
* Adds a "save" RNA function to envmaps. Writes the envmap to disc with a configurable layout. (Defaults to the current hard-coded layout.)
* Updates bpy.ops.texture.envmap_save with configurable layout support as above.
These changes, particularly configurable layouts, make exporting envmaps to other software much easier.

From the patch description:
ValterVB on #blendercoders submitted a long list of missing tooltips in Blender, and I went through the list and added all I knew. After that I crowdsourced the rest by putting a spreadsheet on Google docs and having people fill in the missing ones that I didn't know. So if there's some weird tooltip in there that doesn't make sense, that's why.
Thanks to Wolter, spacetug and others on BlenderArtists for contributing tooltips.
Made some improvements to the point density texture. Added support
for tweaking the falloff with a custom curve. Also coded new
falloff types based on the age or velocity of particles.
Also added a test break check to the volumetric shade cache code,
to avoid nasty hangups from the preview render (on render, exit,
etc).
* Effecting particle properties with textures was possible in 2.49,
but not in 2.5 anymore.
* Now particles have their own textures (available in texture panel
for objects with particle systems), which are totally separate from
the material textures.
* Currently a basic set of particle properties is available for
texture control. Some others could still be added, but the whole
system is not intended as an "change anything with a texture" as
this kind of functionality will be provided with node particles in
the future much better.
* Combined with the previously added "particle texture coordinates"
this new functionality also solves the problem of animating particle
properties through the particle lifetime nicely.
* Currently the textures only use the intensity of the texture in
"multiply" blending mode, so in order for the textures to effect
a particle parameter there has to be a non-zero value defined for
the parameter in the particle settings. Other blend modes can be
added later if they're considered useful enough.
Normal Map bool and the normal_space menu are only used for material based textures, not for textures used by lamp/world etc. Accidentally ported this over from 2.49, where these buttons are drawn even they don't work in that context.
only tags the ID and does the actual flush/update delayed, before the next
redraw. For objects the update was already delayed, just flushing wasn't
yet.
This should help performance in python and animation editors, by making
calls to RNA property update quicker. Still need to add calls in a few
places where this was previously avoided due to bad performance.
disallow cloud depth over 30, it causes a lot of floating point exceptions (and nan value pixels), because of hitting the int limit with 1<<(oct+1) in BLI_gTurbulence
Changed some names when applying.
- render was use_render, changed to show_viewport so call it show_render
- texface shadow was use_shadow_face, changed to use_shadow_cast since this only affects casting.
- transp was alpha_mode, changed to blend_type since its similar to other overlay blending where this property name is used.
