Turning on repeat logging for a subtree only

Turning on repeat logging for a subtree only

[Tom]

I generally have repeat logging off, but I want to turn it on
for a certain subtree.

I added the property LOGGING with the value logrepeat:

:PROPERTIES:
:LOGGING: logrepeat
:END:

But this doesn't seem to work, when I toogle the task state
the repeat is not logged.

I checked the source and apparently it is because logrepeat
sets org-log-repeat to 'state, but I want to it to be set to 'time.

Is there a way to set to it 'time instead of 'state?

And BTW why this 'state value is not documented in the docstring
of org-log-repeat? Isn't it a doc bug?

Works fine for me here. I set org-log-repeat to nil and used the
following headline:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* TODO A test							       :hack:
  SCHEDULED: <2011-04-20 Wed +1d>
  :PROPERTIES:
  :LOGGING:  logrepeat
  :END:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

When I mark it DONE, I get the following results:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* TODO A test							       :hack:
  SCHEDULED: <2011-04-21 Thu +1d>
  :LOGBOOK:
  - State "DONE"       from "TODO"       [2011-04-20 Wed 18:32]
  :END:
  :PROPERTIES:
  :LOGGING:  logrepeat
  :LAST_REPEAT: [2011-04-20 Wed 18:32]
  :END:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

AFAICT 'time and 'state are the same thing.

Best,
