While it's strongly discouraged, it is possible to queue a new relayout
of an actor in the middle of an allocation cycle, we warn about it but
don't forbid it.
With the introduction of the "shallow relayout" API, our handling of
those relayouts silently changed: Before introducing "shallow
relayouts", we'd handle them on the next stage update, but with the
priv->pending_relayouts hashtable and the
priv->pending_relayouts_version counter, we now do them immediately
during the same allocation cycle (the counter is increased by 1 when
queuing the relayout and we switch to a new GHashTableIter after
finishing the current relayout, which means we'll now do the newly
queued relayout).
This change in behavior was probably not intended and wasn't mentioned

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.

The coding style used is primarily the GNU flavor of the GNOME coding
style
with some minor additions such as preferring stdint.h
types over GLib
fundamental types, and a soft 80 character line limit. However, in general,
look at the file you're editing for inspiration.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message guidelines. We require an URL to either an issue or a merge request in each commit.
