Re: Problem with merging whole measure rests

[Malte Meyn]

Hi David,

if I understand correctly you see a problem with the 
Merge_rests_engraver (your attached file from-NR.ly)?

That engraver didn’t merge MultiMeasureRests until 2.19.65 and does so 
since 2.19.80 (the first prerelease for 2.20.0, hence the version number 
jump from 65 to 80). However, merging of MultiMeasureRests gives them an 
incorrect vertical position in 2.19.80–2.19.83. The not yet released 
2.21.0 fixes this.

@someone who knows about such things: Would it make sense to cherry-pick 
that fix into the stable/2.20 branch?

Cheers,
Malte
