Given this vc-dir buffer: DIRECTORY ./ missing config.h * DIRECTORY b/ edited b/c DIRECTORY m/ missing m/n The directory "b/" is selected. vc-next-action needs to decide what action should it perform, looking at the "b/" directory by itself is not helpful, it needs to look at b/c and then it can decide it next action is (vc-checkin "b/") Now if "m/" is selected: DIRECTORY ./ missing config.h DIRECTORY b/ edited b/c * DIRECTORY m/ missing m/n vc-next-action should not do a vc-checkin, but something else.
