25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; Late 2016. In a recent build, the date in a ChangeLog file
28 ;; is not fontified. Turns out the face ‘change-log-date-face’
29 ;; was declared obsolete since 22.1 and removed 2016-06-23.
30 ;; (compile "git show c430f7e23fc2c22f251ace4254e37dea1452dfc3")
32 ;; This library provides a command ‘last-chance’, which is a small
33 ;; combination of "git grep" and some regexp filtering. For example,
34 ;; if point is on the symbol ‘change-log-date-face’ in the form:
36 ;; (define-obsolete-face-alias 'change-log-date-face ...)
38 ;; then:
40 ;; M-x last-chance RET
42 ;; will show you any references to ‘change-log-date-face’ in the
43 ;; *.el files in a new buffer (in Grep mode). Hopefully you see
44 ;; only the obsolete declaration and can proceed w/ its removal.
45 ;; If not, please DTRT and refrain from the removal until those
46 ;; references are properly transitioned.
