Date: Wed, 03 Sep 2014 22:57:13 +0200

Before starting emacs, create two files with .org suffix, i.e. "touch
/tmp/{foo,bar}.org" then in emacs do M-x emerge-files /tmp/foo.org
/tmp/bar.org.  This produces the error

org-overview: `recenter'ing a window that does not display current-buffer.

The relevant call is in org-overview and seems to be there since this
commit:

    Merge latest Org fixes (commit 7524ef2).

This was apparently fixed in the Org repository months ago,
but still not in the Emacs one. Ref:

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=17724#26

(We now have 4 separate Emacs reports for this.)

Oops, thanks for the context.  So this is actually a pretty fundamental
problem and lingers for a while now.  Who can merge the org repository?
Is there something that an outsider like me can do to help?

Thanks

Thanks for asking! :)

Anyone with a copy of the Org repo and the Emacs repo can generate the
diff that needs to be applied from the former to the latter.

Anyone with write access to the Org repo can get write access to the
Emacs repo and apply that diff. (This is a generalization, but I think
it is true. E.g. I assume all people with Org write access have FSF
assignments.)

However, I think this is wasted effort, so I have suggested not doing it
any more; http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2014-08/msg00298.html .

Ok, I see.  So it seems there is nothing I can do after all.  My
original problem indeed is solved having installed org from elpa.

Best wishes

This will be fixed in the next Org merge into Emacs.

I'm slowly (but surely) getting there.
