Version Control Log window destroys all frames on exit

Version Control Log window destroys all frames on exit

Whenever I check in a file (with subversion), VC mode opens up a temporary
buffer for me to leave a checkin message. I generally have a frame or two
already open. VC mode will take a frame (I'm ok with that) but after I
commit the message (C-c C-c) I'm left with one buffer in the window - the
file that VC mode was checking in.
I'd prefer to have all my frames still in tact after checking in the file.
Is this possible?

Give the *VC-log* buffer its own frame (which C-c C-c will delete):

(setq special-display-buffer-names
       (cons "*VC-log*" special-display-buffer-names))

This is great!! Thanks so much. My window arrangements stay in tact and the
few popup frame works like a charm. Seriously, this is great.
One thing I noticed is that if I only have one buffer showing, after I C-c
C-c in the popup, the popup disappears then my single window is split
vertically into two (ala C-x 2). On odd behavior , but one I can live with.

Thanks again for the help!! This has made my day.
