Subject: [BUG] org-agenda-prepare-buffers does not save restrictions
Date: Thu, 07 Jul 2022 12:25:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87y1x588rs.fsf@thinkpad.mail-host-address-is-not-set> (raw)

I am not sure if this has been reported before, of if the behaviour is intended. But to reproduce this "bug":
- Open an org file from the agenda.
- Restrict to some headline
- Execute the following command:

(with-temp-buffer
  (org-agenda-prepare-buffers (org-agenda-files t)))

- The restriction is removed.

Note that executing `(org-agenda-prepare-buffers (org-agenda-files t))` in the buffer (without `with-temp-buffer`) restores the restriction upon completion.

The reason is that `save-restriction` (and `save-excursion`) are called in `org-agenda-prepare-buffers`
before switching to the buffer of the org file so the restriction is not saved (the point is manually restored but not the restriction).

This has implications on running `org-map-entries` where all org buffers in the agenda (beside the current one) lose their restrictions.

Attached is a possible patch to fix this.
