Olivier Fourdan fe41e69eea wayland/xdnd: Use multiple DnD X11 peers
When a drag and drop occurs from an X11 client to a Wayland native
client, mutter uses an internal X11 window as a peer for the DnD  drop
site.

That internal X11 window is moved and resized to match the Wayland
native windows as the drag destination moves.

When moving from one Wayland native window to another Wayland native
window, the same X11 window is used, and as a result no DND enter/leave
events is emitted.

In that case, the drop may occur on the wrong Wayland native window,
because no new XdndEnter/XdndLeave event were emitted.

To avoid that issue, use a pair of X11 windows instead of just one and
alternate between the two when repicking a new drop surface, so that
moving from a Wayland surface to another will always generate the
expected enter/leave events that we rely on.

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
