[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 736 bytes --]

This is my first major org-mode contribution, and I'm new to git, so if
there is something I haven't got quite right in terms of how to contribute
please advise.

org-entry-get with inherit set didn't work for sub-heading additions or
overrides to properties found in parent headings as of Org-mode version
7.9.2 (release_7.9.2-738-g442b2a-git @ org-loaddefs.el can not be found!).

An example test org-mode file is attached (modified from the
testing/examples directory and also updated in my git repository).

My public git repository info is: git clone git@bitbucket.org:
mrvwman/wishon-org-mode.git
branch name: fix-property-inheritance

I've submitted my request to assign@gnu.org, but have not yet received a
reply.

Best,
~>Bill

The result should be 8.5
with Org-mode version 7.9.2 the result is that boo is undefined.

The result should be "foo=1 bar=2 boo=2.5 baz=3"
with Org-mode version 7.9.2 the result is "foo=1 bar=2 baz=3"

#+end_src

** resetting a parent property
  :PROPERTIES:
  :var+:       nil

The result should be "nil"
with Org-mode version 7.9.2 the result is an error

*** setting a new property value
