Exporting visible items not behaving as expected

Exporting visible items not behaving as expected

Hey guys,

I'm having a bit of trouble with exports. My understanding is that I should
be able to create a sparse tree from a tag (C-c / m tag-name RET) and then
export only the visible items (C-c C-e C-v t A) to get an export of just
the items with that tag. What I'm getting instead is an export that only
contains the top-level headers and I'm uncertain why this is happening. Any
advice would be greatly appreciated. Details follow:

Org-mode version 8.0.2 (8.0.2-2-g93da18-elpa @
/Users/camdez/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20130429/)

Here's my sample buffer:

* Last week
** DONE Finalize early screens (login, etc.)
** DONE Judge video contest
** DONE Create mobile stories document
 :FLAGGED:
* This week
** TODO Incorporate changes from others into stories document
** TODO Nail down requirements
** TODO Set up next milestone
:FLAGGED:

After C-c / m FLAGGED RET:

* Last week...
** DONE Create mobile stories document
 :FLAGGED:
* This week...
** TODO Set up next milestone
:FLAGGED:...

And my ASCII export (C-c C-e C-v t A) looks like this:

For comparison, if I don't limit the export to visible items (C-c C-e t A)
I get this:

The visible-only code was over simplistic. I fixed it in maint, so your
example should export fine now.

Thank you for reporting this.

Yessir, I see the expected behavior now (with the upgrade). Many thanks.
