the path for clang_format_paths.py changed when the submodules
moved but format.cmd was never updated for that.
the work previously done by check_submodules.cmd is now done by
make_update.py so this file can be removed.
This is an issue revealed by the recent optimization in 4d3bfb3f41 to have
CPU and GPU subdivision topology both cached.
BKE_subsurf_modifier_subdiv_descriptor_ensure is what (re)creates the
topology refiner when needed. Invalidating the topology refiner on changes
must be done before it, otherwise we end up with an incomplete Subdiv that
either does not draw or draws incorrectly.

Various UI code would store the `AssetHandle` in a way that turns out to
be unsafe. The file-data is part of the file browser caching system that
releases file-data when a certain maximum of items is in the cache. So
even while just iterating over the assets, earlier iterated asset
handles may become invalid. Now asset handles are really treated as
volatile, short lived objects.
For the asset-view, the fix was more involved. There we need an RNA
collection of asset-handles, because the UI list code requires that. So
we create a dummy collection and get the asset handles as needed by
index. This again meant that I had to keep the index of the collection
and the asset-list in sync, so all filtering had to be moved to the UI
list.
I tried duplicating the file-data out of the cache instead, but that
caused problems with managing the memory/ownership of the preview
images.
`AssetHandle` should be removed and replaced by `AssetRepresentation`,
but this would be an even more disruptive change (breaking API
compatibility too).

When linking a texture directly to the material output, it's likely being
done for the purpose of previewing. In that case, bias the heuristic towards
not building a light tree, as it's likely not needed and slow on dense meshes.
Fix race condition if several competing threads are inserting Metal
buffers into the MTLSafeFreeList simultaneously while a new list
chunk is being created.
Also raise the limit for an MTLSafeFreeListChunk size to optimize
for interactivity when releasing lots of memory simultaneously.

Metal buffer binding validation would trigger an error
when a given shader had an empty PushConstantBlock.
This patch removes the default uniform code gen if
no uniforms are present, to avoid any possible issues
with buffers being bound to a shader where the destination
data block is size zero.

immDrawPixels performs significantly slower in Metal
than OpenGL. This was caused by two main factors. Firstly,
the additional overhead of tiled texture update, where all
memory needed to be kept in flight for each update, but
caused update to take a slow path. Avoiding tile update
with Metal is more efficient for both memory pressure
and GPU pipelining.
Secondly, on AMD platforms, the staging buffer used
for temporary texture data was page-faulting when
several texture updates would occur within one frame.
This is due to limitations of allocating one large contiguous
memory chunk. Using the Metal buffer pool for staging
data is more efficient.

Maximum distance of lines in screen space is limited. This limit seems
reasonable for FPS higher than 1, but UI allows to set 0.01 FPS with
soft. even lower values are possible.
This patch allows for normal operation within soft limits and labels are
still visible and quite usable within hard limits.

- Show/hide mask layers: the tooltip was confusing from a user's
perspective, because they should not be expected to know what a hide
flag is.
- Active Spline -> Active Point: likely a copy and paste error.
- Geo Nodes face is planar node: forgotten article.
- Axes, plural instead of axis for the viewport preferences. Here
there are several usages of axis or axes. Since they refer to
coordinate axes I believe they should be plural, even though the
property `mini_axis_type` is still wrong.

The bug only happened in wireframe mode.
Originally the `const bool use_depth` indicated when projection should
be done on invoke.
Later it started to indicate when to snap on invoke.
But with keymap snap detection, using this `use_depth` is no longer
correct.
When creating the bounding box mesh for the viewport replacement,
copy the material from the original mesh. I'm not sure if Cycles is
meant to load materials from the original mesh or the Alembic file
itself, but either way, this should be a harmless change and fixes the
issue in the report.

... or carnidal interpolation with only 2 color stops.
This was triggering an incorrect path due to missing optimisation cases.
Just fall back to the unoptimized case fixes the assert.
This was likely caused by a bad merge when doing the uniform name
patching for Metal.
This also fix the same issue for active UDIM tile overlay which wasn't
reported.
eaa87101cd made evaluated metaballs become meshes
for render engines. This exposed the normals calculated by the metaball
tessellation directly, whereas before they were recalculated later.
There are two fixes: not using the metaball tessellation normals at
all and calculating them with the standard Mesh code path instead,
or switching a define in the metaball code to use a more mesh-like
vertex normal accumulation. Since the results are very similar
(see attached renders), use the second solution, which should
be less expensive.

Move the deform curves with surface node group to last so it affects the
final generated curves consistently (though this will have a negative
performance impact), and make the generate and interpolate modifiers use
the surface mesh's rest positions.
My PR https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/104535
was committed as 88f9c55f7f and the logic was changed
while adding support for face sets, making the logic incorrect and
the warning system disfunctional.
Restore the logic from the original PR with added support for face sets,
fix const correctness issues, improve variable naming, and remove a
check for empty names, since all attribute-type layers should have
names in a valid mesh.

Skip explicit binding location for samplers in OpenGL when not needed, since drivers can usually handle more sampler declarations this way (as long as they're not actually used by the shader).

The loading for the "All" asset library would include the "Current File"
library as if it were a regular asset libray on disk. Instead make sure
the latter is loaded properly first and is skipped when recursively
reading on disk libraries.
The transformations were applied two times and the old fix was wrong because it needs to use the evaluated point, not the original one. Also I did a small code cleanup.

This is a non-recent regression that strangely went unreported.
It is expected that when snapping, only visible elements are considered
which does not include faces in wireframe mode.
This works like this before, and this change doesn't appear to have
been intentional.

One of the advantages of separating this enum member from the others is
because mixing several members in a single one hinders debugging since
in this case the IDE does not define which enums were set.
Also separating this item makes it more readable as `SCE_SNAP_MODE_GEOM`
is not a snap mode but a combination of modes.
In most places where it appears in a menu, the operator would already
apply to all selected F-Curves. Now it is done consistently and explicitly
from all menu items. The default of the operator is now also set to 'all
selected', so that it also behaves like that when called from the operator
search menu.
- The Math node lost the headers of its operation type menu in
ee985fa925 , because a translation context was assigned to the RNA

messages with matching contexts.
- The message "Group Input" had a trailing space, which can be added
after translation.
Fix a regression that allowed to create several links between an

Multiple user actions performed quickly could be blocked by undo
compacting memory - if the background compacting task was not complete
when the next undo step was pushed.
Notes:
- This and recent improvements to BLI_array_Store gives over ~2x speedup
compared with 3.3x, over 10x compared with 3.4x.
A sub-surfaced cube with the modifier applied was used for testing
(~1.5 million polys), both randomized & non-randomized verts/edge/faces
were used to avoid the sub-surface memory layout biasing the results.
Tested transforming ~1/3rd of the mesh and inverting selection.
- Without compacting mesh-data in parallel, the optimizations to
BLI_array_store can give similar performance to 3.3x, however there
are still cases where performance isn't quite as good - so compact the
arrays in parallel to ensure performance is at least as good as 3.3x.
Resolves#105046.
The method of accumulating values to create a hash for each chunk has
been improved for ~16% better distribution of the resulting hashes.
Improve performance of array de-duplication, see: #105046.
Accumulating hashes with a byte/boolean array didn't include enough
information for a useful hash, creating hashes with many collisions.
This is the root cause of a performance regression since 3.3 where
mesh data (used for storing edit-mesh undo steps) was changed to store
selection in a boolean array, creating a bottleneck de-duplicating
chunks of that array for edit-mesh undo's custom-data de-duplication.
Resolve by increasing hash accumulation for arrays with smaller elements,
so each chunk of memory (a candidate for de-duplication) isn't as likely
to have hash collisions.
`char` (single byte) arrays now accumulate 22 values instead of 7, it's
taking more values into account was necessary as these are effectively
bits in the case of boolean arrays, 2-byte values accumulate 32 bytes,
4-byte elements accumulate 44 bytes, larger structs accumulate
`sizeof(type) * 7` bytes (as before).
Also ensure the accumulation read-ahead never exceeds the chunk size -
technically a fix although this would only happen when passing a small
`chunk_count` to BLI_array_store_create (in the range of 1-16) so this
didn't happen in practice.
Improve performance of array de-duplication, see: #105046.
Use uint32_t since it's sufficient for hashing, using an int64_t was
especially inefficient when allocating an int64_t for every boolean
(when compacting an array of booleans).
Improve performance of array de-duplication, see: #105046.
This is a fix for the previous commit d7c023eb25.
Before, every time the lambda was called, a copy of the BitVector was
made. This was very inefficient.
Now this has been fixed by passing the BitVector by reference (&) in
the lambda function.
