Subject: New feature: cancel a repeater to allow marking repeating tasks as DONE
Date: Mon, 11 Nov 2013 18:17:49 +0100 [thread overview]

Sometimes it's useful to cancel a repeater: for example, when you
want to mark a task as definitely DONE.
The attached patch does this by allowing the user to use -1 as the
numeric prefix argument for `org-todo'.
(It does not delete the repeater, instead it sets it to 0 so that
planning information structure is preserved: for example, you can
have a repeater and a 'start warning in X days' cookie.)
Tests and feedback welcome!
