If this is needed we can add the reset button back as an option for certain operators,
but AFAICS any operator with enough settings that resetting them all would be annoying - could have presets enabled.
Code to support it was lying around for long already, but not controlled by UI nicely.
Now you have in user preferences "System" tab an option to set it.
NOTE:
- it only works saving as User startup.blend, and restart Blender.
- your system should support it, no check for it is visible in UI
- tested only on iMac OSX 10.7

This commit allows you to set the RGB <-> XYZ axis colours used for things like
the mini axis indicator, grid axis indicators, manipulators, transform
constraint indicators, F-Curves (when using XYZ to RGB colouring option), and
perhaps something else I've missed. Previously, these places all used hardcoded
defines (220 * i/j/k), but the readability of these colours was often quite
poor, especially when used with certain themes.
The settings for these colours can be found under the "User Interface" section
of the themes (i.e. same set of colours is used across editors). I could have
made these per editor, but since it's unlikely that these will need to be too
different across editors in practice (+ being easier to version patch), they are
stored under the UI section.
Now tile size is setting up explicitly instead of using number of tiles.
This allows better control over GPU performance, where having tiles aligned
to specific size makes lots of sense.
Still to come: need to update startup.blend to make tiles size 64x64.
This fixes some "regressions" introduced in rev50781 which lead to much
worse solution in some cases. Now it's possible to bring old behavior back.
Perhaps it's more like temporal solution for time being smarter solution is
found. But finding such a solution isn't so fast, so let's bring manual
control over reprojection usage.
But anyway, imo it's now nice to have a structure which could be used to
pass different settings to the solver.
when combined with geometry modifiers.
The problem is that users were not able to choose the time when the
dashed line options are applied. Instead, the dashed line options were
applied only before geometry modifiers were employed. Since dashes were
separate strokes, the geometry modifiers were processed dash by dash.
Depending on users' artistic intention, this may or may not lead to
expected stylization results, as reported by octane98 in the
BlenderArtists Freestyle thread on January 3, 2012.

Now the Strokes tab of the Freestyle Line Style panel has two sets of
dashed line options. One is in the Splitting section of the Strokes tab
and used for splitting strokes by dashed line patterns. The other set
is called "Dashed Line" and used to generate dashed lines based on the
strokes after the geometry modifiers are applied. The two sets of
dashed line options are independent of each other, so that users can
enable one of them as well as both at the same time.
* Add "Toggle Full Screen" and "Duplicate Area into New Window" operators to the view menu, was missing in those 2 operators. Patch [#33076] by Harley Acheson, thanks.
* Also moved those two operators to the top in text editor, for consistency.
Conflicts resolved:

This commit also includes a fix of a bug identified during the merge and committed in revision 51853.
Thanks Thomas (dingto) for the timely fix!
* Patch [#33073] Remove Extra Menu Level from Object Parent and Track
* Did not commit the icon changes here, separator line should be sufficient.
Patch by Harley Acheson, thanks!
* Add 3 more operators to the Node menu.
node.join [join selected nodes in a new frame]
node.detach [remove selected nodes from their frame]
node.links_detach [remove all links to selected nodes and try to reconnect neighboring nodes together]
Patch by Philipp Oeser, thanks!
* Shader script node added, which stores either a link to a text datablock or
file on disk, and has functions to add and remove sockets.
* Callback RenderEngine.update_script_node(self, node) added for render engines
to compile the shader and update the node with new sockets.
Thanks to Thomas, Lukas and Dalai for the implementation.
Our current intl build for windows is quite old (don't know the exact version), and does not have the new setlocale overwrite. Problem is, new windows dll have no more the gettext_putenv helper, which is currently mandatory to make it work for this OS.
So back for now to the ugly long_locales for win. Best fix is probably to build our own static version of libl, but this is not trivial and will require some time. :/
PS: I had a look over i18n/translation in wxWidget, Qt and boost: all implement their own system, even though wxWidget and boost use po/mo files...
- Rename 'mesh.select_nth' operator menu item 'Every N Number of Verts' to 'Checker Deselect',
since its not just de-selecting verts (works on edges and faces too) and the term 'checker' gives a better description of the result.
- Rename 'mesh.select_by_number_vertices' to 'mesh.select_face_by_sides', since this is a face selection tool, which wasnt obvious from its name.
also remove dissolve by type menu since the option has been removed from the operator and was giving an error.
the big layers panel in three, and fixing Freestyle's panels poll function to hide
them when Freestyle is disabled.
Patch contribution by Bastien Montagne, thanks!
This commit makes a set of fixes and improvements based on the results of
Freestyle branch review by Brecht. The discussion thread is:
http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2012-October/037927.html
* The Layers panel and Freestyle-related panels in the Render tab of the
Properties window were moved to the newly created Render Layers tab.
The idea is to separate per render layer rendering options into a distinct
Properties window tab, and use the existing Render tab to accommodate
per scene rendering options.
* The new Freestyle panel was added in the Render tab. The panel header
contains a toggle button for globally enabling Freestyle, with the aim of making
Freestyle easier to find. Those Freestyle options in the Post Processing panel
were also moved to the new panel.
* GUI code was updated so that UI controls will be greyed out (instead of
being hidden) when Freestyle is disabled. Additional UI changes were also
made to reduce space consumption.
* The list of line sets was moved from the Freestyle panel to the Freestyle:
Line Sets panel.
* Old ray-casting algorithms were removed from the UI. Now only two
algorithms (culled and non-culled cumulative visibility detection algorithms)
are available, and the selection is done by the new "Culling" toggle button
within the edge detection options.
PATCH: [#32989] Activate backup files filter in File Browser
Contributed by Georg Kronthaler, many thanks!
(I just moved the icon to a different place reserved for file browser icons)
* enables the filtering of backup files in the file browser
* adds a 'filter backup files'-icon to the filter buttons
* adds new icons for backup files in list and thumbnail view
* enables file preview for the backup files
