Subject: (vc-responsible-backend): Undo the previous change in the argument
X-Git-Tag: emacs-pretest-21.0.90~1223
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8989ab56c2969e4122afead6868eae9357de27bd;p=emacs.git

(vc-responsible-backend): Undo the previous change in the argument
list.  Handle multiple backends correctly.
(vc-find-new-backend): Function removed.
(vc-register): Use vc-responsible-backend, as before.
(vc-next-action-on-file): Do use vc-registered, not vc-backend.
