* lisp/play/pong.el (pong-move-left pong-move-right): Refer to the
right bats and directions of movement.  (Bug#36959)

* lisp/simple.el (append-to-buffer, prepend-to-buffer)
(copy-to-buffer): Doc fixes.

* lisp/progmodes/octave.el (octave-eldoc-function-signatures): Fix the
regexp used, so no match happens when there is no defined function FN.
Also, tweak the regexp to support GNU Octave 4.2.x and newer.  (Bug#36459)

* lisp/man.el (Man-build-man-command): On MS-Windows, redirect
stdin of 'man' to the null device, to make sure Groff exits
immediately after formatting the man page.

pending_signals is often set if no quit is pending.  This results in
bugs in module code if the module returns but no quit is actually
pending.

* src/emacs-module.c (module_should_quit): Use QUITP macro to check
whether the caller should quit.

* src/eval.c: Remove obsolete comment.

* doc/misc/gnus.texi (Group Parameters, Expiring Mail):
* lisp/gnus/gnus-cus.el (gnus-group-parameters): Clarify
descriptions of nnmail-expiry, nnmail-expiry-wait, and
nnmail-expiry-wait-function.
* lisp/gnus/nnmail.el (nnmail-expiry-wait)
(nnmail-expiry-wait-function): Clarify docstrings and fix custom
:types (bug#36850).

* doc/lispref/debugging.texi (Syntax Errors, Excess Open)
(Excess Close): Name the commands invoked by the key
sequences.  Add cross-references to appropriate sections of
the Emacs manual.  (Bug#21385)

(cherry picked from commit faafd467)

* doc/emacs/programs.texi (Left Margin Paren): Add index for "\( in
strings".
* doc/lispref/positions.texi (List Motion): Add index, and cross
reference.

* lisp/window.el (fit-window-to-buffer): Fix doc-string.

Not all the kill commands save the text in the kill ring
by default (e.g. `kill-rectangle').
It is more precise to just say that the kill commands save
the text and do not change the buffer (Bug#36741).
* lisp/view.el (view-mode): Update docstring.

* src/process.c (Fset_process_filter): Call add_process_read_fd
according to the state of process filter before it's updated.  This
restores the correct functioning as it was before 2016-02-16 "Allow
setting the filter masks later".  Inline the set_process_filter_masks
call instead of fixing it that function, because it is also called
from connect_network_socket, and we don't want to change the behavior
of that function so close to release.
* test/src/process-tests.el (set-process-filter-t): New test.

* lisp/term.el: Mention both forms of directory tracking in
commentary.  Remove obsolete ChangeLog comments.  Move more relevant
summary comments to the top.

* doc/lispref/package.texi (Package Archives): Don't document
package-x upload functions in the elisp manual, since they are not
very commonly used.  (Bug#19537)
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package-x.el (package-archive-upload-base)
(package-upload-buffer, package-upload-file): Add to the doc strings
any details removed from the elisp manual that would otherwise be
missing.

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2019-07/msg00528.html
* doc/misc/gnus.texi (X-Face): Fix cross-reference.
(Gravatars):
* lisp/gnus/gnus-gravatar.el (gnus-gravatar-too-ugly):
* lisp/image/gravatar.el (gravatar-cache-ttl, gravatar-rating)
(gravatar-size): Clarify user option descriptions.
(gravatar-retrieve, gravatar-retrieve-synchronously): Document
return value.

* lisp/term.el (term-emulate-terminal): Avoid errors if the whole
decoded string is eight-bit characters.  Don't attempt to save the
string for next iteration in that case.
* test/lisp/term-tests.el (term-decode-partial)
(term-undecodable-input): New tests.

Pointed out by Michael Heerdegen <michael_heerdegen@web.de>.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package-alist): Fix docstring
grammar (bug#17403).

* src/buffer.c (syms_of_buffer) <bidi-display-reordering>:
Further doc fix.

This explanation was given by Eli Zaretskii on emacs-devel.
For discussion, see:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2019-07/msg00294.html

* src/buffer.c (syms_of_buffer): Add warning to doc string of
bidi-display-reordering to explain that it should only be used for
debugging.

* configure.ac: Set RSVG_REQUIRED to 2.14.0 as rsvg_handle_get_dimensions
needs it.

Tell package.el their version number, for better behavior w.r.t the
versions available in GNU ELPA

* doc/emacs/display.texi (Font Lock): Make the wording about
"enabling Font Lock" crystal clear.  (Bug#36529)

* doc/lispref/display.texi (Image Descriptors): More accurate
description of where image files are looked up.  (Bug#36523)

* doc/emacs/killing.texi (Secondary Selection): Improve
wording.  Mention that 'M-mouse-1' can be used to cancel
secondary selections.  (Bug#36365)

* src/macfont.m (macfont_supports_charset_and_languages_p)
(macfont_has_char): Don't pass integers outside the Unicode codespace to
CFCharacterSetIsLongCharacterMember.  Do not merge to master.

* lisp/progmodes/python.el (python-shell--prompt-calculated-output-regexp):
python-shell-set-prompt-regexp doesn't exist, presumably
python-shell-prompt-set-calculated-regexps was meant.
