* src/nautilus-applicable-views.c:
(got_minimum_file_info_callback),
(nautilus_determine_initial_view),
(nautilus_determine_initial_view_cancel): Get rid of the code to
monitor the directory. It's now moved up one level to the
manage-views.c code.
* src/nautilus-window-private.h:
* src/nautilus-window-manage-views.c: (free_location_change),
(begin_location_change): Move the code that starts monitoring the
directory up here instead.
* src/nautilus-application.c: (volume_unmounted_callback): Rewrote
this code to not use the viewed_file private field. There's a
public call to get the current location that should work just as
well. Also fix bug where it would ignore the scheme and just look
at the path part.
* libnautilus-extensions/nautilus-directory-metafile.c:
(nautilus_directory_use_self_contained_metafile_factory): Added
check to detect if this is called after using the factory.
(free_factory): Simplified.
(get_factory): New function to simplify get_metafile.
(get_metafile): Simplified.
* src/nautilus-location-bar.c: (try_to_expand_path): Fix storage
leak.
* libnautilus-extensions/nautilus-entry.c:
(nautilus_entry_key_press): Added FIXME after noticing a
particularly lame version of tilde expansion in here. I'm not sure
this is even used to good effect, since the location bar now does
its own tidle expansion.
* README: Fixed many inaccuracies.
* libnautilus-extensions/nautilus-stock-dialogs.c:
(timed_wait_free): Formatting tweaks.
* src/nautilus-theme-selector.c:
(get_theme_description_and_display_name): Formatting tweaks.
