[Orgmode] [RFC/PATCH v3] Stop generating superfluous clock entries


From: Bernt Hansen
Subject: [Orgmode] [RFC/PATCH v3] Stop generating superfluous clock entries
Date: Sat, 28 Nov 2009 11:07:14 -0500

From: Carsten Dominik <address@hidden>

Avoid closing the currently clocking entry when clocking in the same task
again.  Leave the clock entry open until some other task is clocked in.

This allows us to clock in tasks with hooks that are called frequently without
generating lots of short sequential clock entries for the same task.

Carsten,

I think this patch works but I want to let it cook for a week or so before
committing it in master.  The previous patches had issues clocking in with a
prefix when not in an org-mode buffer.

I've squashed the previous two reverted commits into this patch and added a
check to prevent org-back-to-heading if we are using a selected task.
There is also some whitespace cleanup at the bottom.

This makes C-u C-c C-x C-i work in the agenda and non-org-mode buffers again.
