We use get_window_for_event() to check whether an event happened on top of a window or on top of shell UI to decide whether to bypass delivering the event to Clutter. In case of crossing events though, we can't just use the device actor to determine whether to forward the event to Clutter or not: We do want to forward CLUTTER_LEAVE events which happened on top of shell UI. In that case the device actor is already a window actor (the pointer already is on top of a window), but the shell still needs to get the LEAVE crossing event. Since the event source actor got removed from the detail of ClutterEvent, the context we're looking for (which actor did the pointer leave) is now the target actor that the event gets emitted to. Since the last commit, we also made event filters aware of this context by passing the target actor to them, so use this context now to determine whether we're on top of a window or not.

Mutter
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.
When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.
When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.
It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.

Git messages
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. We require an URL
to either an issue or a merge request in each commit. Try to always prefix
commit subjects with a relevant topic, such as compositor:
or
clutter/actor:
, and it's always better to write too much in the commit
message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main
. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
