Hi all

There seems to be a bug when ediff-files is used to compare and edit
two Org files. Reproduced with Emacs 24.4 (-Q), today's
release_8.3beta-750-gb6fce5 and these steps:

1) M-: (ediff-files "a.org" "b.org")
2) Move point to the buffer "b.org" to the line with "b"
3) M-<up> M-<up>
4) Move point back to Ediff Control Panel
5) !

The result is that an unexpected difference is left: In the buffer
"b.org" the last two lines with "f" and "g" have been removed.
org-element-use-cache set to nil does not make a difference.

Michael

Also Emacs 23.4 makes no difference.

Now I made a bisect which ends up in

    commit 56fe788c8f4ff44430a79052d4d758a0a233ac40

        org-list: Fix visibility preservation

        * lisp/org-list.el (org-list-struct): Fix white spaces.
        (org-list-swap-items, org-list-send-item): Fix visibility
        preservation.

Understanding the problem or for a workaround resolve the merge
conflict of the revert seems too hard for me.

This should be fixed. Thank you for reporting it.

However, the buffer was not corrupted, but narrowed.
