More information was requested, but none was given within 5 weeks, so
I'll just assume that the above fixed the issue.  I'm therefore closing
this bug now.

If this is still an issue, please reply to this email (use "Reply to
all" in your email client) and we can reopen the bug report.

 Commit 44298ea6aa006ed227e539b02279bd3fc11fd2a6 breaks font display
 on macOS
Date: Fri, 21 Feb 2020 13:45:08 -0800

I noticed recently that no text was displaying in my Emacs 27 windows. As if
everything were black and black, except that changing the font and background
colors did not help.

It took two days of rebuilding, but I've isolated this as the breaking commit:

commit 44298ea6aa006ed227e539b02279bd3fc11fd2a6
Author: Alan Third <alan <at> idiocy.org>
Date:   Sat Feb 1 21:17:29 2020 +0000

    Use CGImage instead of NSBitmapImageRep (bug#32932)

    * src/nsterm.m (ns_update_end):
    (ns_clear_frame): Remove forced draws.
    (ns_draw_fringe_bitmap):
    (ns_dumpglyphs_image): No longer need to invert images as the context
    is already flipped.
    ([EmacsView updateFrameSize:]):
    ([EmacsView initFrameFromEmacs:]): Use new function.
    ([EmacsView createDrawingBuffer]): Replaces createDrawingBufferWithRect:.
    ([EmacsView focusOnDrawingBuffer]): Set CGImage context.
    ([EmacsView windowDidChangeBackingProperties:]): Use new function.
    ([EmacsView copyRect:to:]): Copy using CGImages.
    ([EmacsView wantsUpdateLayer]):
    ([EmacsView updateLayer]): New Functions.
    ([EmacsView drawRect:]): We no longer do anything special here for
    Cocoa.
    ([EmacsView windowDidChangeBackingProperties:]): Fix indentation and
    add NSTRACE.

Anything prior to this works as expected. From this commit forward, all
windows are black on black.
