This is useful when multiple plugins add region_highlight entries and
subsequently want to remove only their own entries. Without this
functionality, recognizing one's region_highlight entries is not trivial
because the 'start' and 'end' offsets are modified by editing of $BUFFER
and the highlight specification may not be unique or distinctive.
The tweaks are as follows:
- Change zfree() to zsfree() per workers/46070.
- Remove the mem.c hunk, as it changed the signature of only one out of
two alternative definitions of zsfree(). (The definition that hunk
touched is the one that's not used by default.)
"Topics" is an experimental concept in Mercurial that augments the
current branching concept (called "named branches").

This manifested as a trailing non-underlined ".RE" in the rendered man page.
(I guess that was a man page directive, but I'm not sure how the extraneous
closing parenthesis caused it to be rendered in the output.)
- Consistently use the term "pattern" rather than "context" or "style pattern"
- Correct statements about order of precedence of patterns
- Give the rationale for the "rule of thumb"
Having reviewed 20076, 20084, 21734, and 21735, my understanding is that
the original intention was:
- A 'return' in a function does run always-list
- An 'exit' outside a function does not run always-list
- A 'return' outside a function is treated as an 'exit'
All of which are the case today. The remaining case, of 'exit' used
inside a function, was not specified by the referenced -workers@ posts;
does, as implemented, run the always-list; and furthermore, based in
21734 it's fair to assume that the original documentation was assuming
that 'exit' would be used outside of any function, just like it assumed
'return' would be used inside a function.
Therefore, have the documentation specify only the behaviour of 'exit'
outside any function, and leave the behaviour of 'exit' inside
a function unspecified. Anyone who relied on the documentation of 'exit'
as documented until this commit would have run into the
documentation/implementation discrepancy described in 45075.
