This is a serious bug causing loss of data.
Recent messages on the org-mode mailing list suggest that this
issue may have been fixed upstream. If so, such changes have not
yet been merged back into emacs-24.
Starting from emacs -Q:
1) open an org-mode buffer "foo.org" and add:
#+begin_src c
#+end_src
2) With point on at the start of the '#+begin_src' line, type C-'
(org-edit-special) to edit the content of the source block.
this will open a window for another buffer "*Org Src foo.org[ c ]*".
3) Add some text to the "*Org Src foo.org[ c ]*" buffer and type C-'
(org-edit-src-exit) to commit the changes back to the org file.
The entire contents of the data block are lost.
4) Edit an existing non-empty source block in the same way, and all of
the pre-existing content is lost.

If it causes data loss, I think it should be fixed in the emacs-24 branch. Thanks. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I made one mistake: I backported Paul's fixes about whitespaces in our bugfix branch*, so those fixes are now in emacs-24 too, not in the trunk only. I hope this won't create merge conflicts. * http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?h=maint&id=e5ea08 -- Bastien ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
