Code:
All references in the code not related to themes, keybindings, or
GConf were changed from 'metacity' to 'mutter'. This includes, among other
things, strings, comments, the atoms used in the message protocol, and
the envvars used for debugging. The GConf schema file was reduced to
the 3 settings new to mutter.
The overall version was brought up to 2.27 to match current gnome.
Structure:
All files named '*metacity*' were renamed '*mutter*' with appropriate
changes in the automake system. Files removed are
doc/creating_themes, src/themes, doc/metacity-theme.dtd,
metacity.doap. These files will eventually end up in an external
gnome-wm-data module.
Installation location:
On the filesystem the mutter-plugindir was change from
$(libdir)/metacity/plugins/clutter to just $(libdir)/mutter/plugins.
The mutter-plugins.pc.in reflects these changes.
Note:
mutter.desktop.in and mutter-wm.desktop both continue to have
X-GNOME-WMSettingsModule=metacity set. This allows
gnome-control-center to continue using libmetacity.so for
configuration. This is fine since most the general keybindings and wm
settings are being read from /apps/metacity/* in gconf.
Change #define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500 to 600 in compositor-xrender.c to
avoid a bad interaction with -xc99 on Solaris.
Remove unneeded #define in compositor-mutter.c.

Cogl's default blend function has been switched to expect premultiplied
alpha. Change the combine function and the colors we use to
modulate alpha to match.

It doesn't make sense to allow the window texture to be sliced,
but not allow the mask texture to be sliced. So, we should either
set 'disable-slicing' for the texture actor or not pass NO_SLICING when
creating the mask texture.
While slicing currently results in only the first layer being shown,
disabling slicing entirely would break windows larger than the texture
size limit. It would be straightforward to support multitexturing of
sliced textures in Cogl when all the textures are identically sized
and sliced identically, if it became a priority.

- Use float instead of ClutterUnit
- clutter_actor_get_size/position() return floats (remove some
stray usage of these functions in the default plugin as well.)
- Adapt to cogl_texture_new_from_data() changes
- Use blend strings to set up multitexturing
- Remove CLUTTER_UNITS_TO_FLOAT() usage

If the input region has been shaped, then clutter needs to
receive EnterNotify/LeaveNotify events in order to properly
send enter and leave events to actors when the pointer crosses
the boundary of the stage.

Also, use MetaWindows as the tab_popup keys rather than using (X) Windows
and then having to map back and forth everywhere, which is silly since
we never actually want the X Window.

Rather than trying to reverse-engineer what kind of tab/workspace
popup to create from within meta_display_begin_grab_op(), just create
the popup directly from do_choose_window()/handle_workspace_switch()
after completing the grab, since they already know which kind they
want.
Also add meta_screen_destroy_tab_popup()/_destroy_workspace_popup()
rather than having meta_display_end_grab_op() poke into MetaScreen's
internals itself.

Add mutter.doap with the module description
Move the old MAINTAINERS to METACITY_MAINTAINERS
List Tomas and myself as the maintainers in MAINTAINERS and mutter.doap
If mutter_plugin_set_stage_input_region() and related methods are
called before the output window is available, save the set input
region and apply it to the output window later on.
compository-mutter.[ch]: Add mutter_set_stage_input_region() and
mutter_empty_stage_input_region(), move the input region handling
here and implement the delayed shape setting described
above.
mutter-plugin.c: Implement shape setting in terms of the new methods.

Build a XML gir file and binary typelib file for the interfaces that
we are installing for plugin use. They are installed into $(pkglibdir)
since they are private to the application.

Using G_MODULE_BIND_LOCAL causes problems for introspecting plugins,
since introspected symbols need to be globally available. And in
any case, trying to use linker features to prevent symbol conflicts
doesn't usually work out very well, it's better to just namespace
properly.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=580033
Add separate mutter_plugin_manager_load() and
mutter_plugin_manager_initialize() calls so that we can just
load the plugins without start them. This is useful for introspecting
a gnome-shell plugin at build time.

Always compile the default keybindings into Metacity, and if we
fail to retrieve the values from GConf, use the compiled-in
value. This makes things more robust especially in an environment
like JHBuild where GConf-schema-installation may not work
correctly.
Also use these values for the no-GConf case, rather than
having a separate arrray and code path.

This patch adds the concept of a special key for WM operations, and
the default is Super_L, which on extended PC hardware is the
"Windows key". What we do is handle the special case of a press
and release of this key (without any other intervening keys).
Super_L+<key> should still be passed to applications. In the future
we may want to also take some of these keybindings (e.g. Super+TAB)
though.

Add sigals to MetaWorkspace to allow tracking when windows are added
and removed. Note that on window creation that these signals are fired
before the window setup is totally complete, so they need to be used
with some care. (For example, the compositor, if present, has not
been notified of the new window.)

To guard against CompositeNameWindowPixmap failing, just use an
error trap. Previous code used:
GrabServer/GetWindowAttributes/CompositeNameWindowPixmap/UngrabServer
To prevent BadMatch errors from !viewable, but didn't check the
return value of GetWindowAttributes and didn't check if an error
occured during the error trap. This way is more correct and more
efficient.
