Subject: [PATCH] [BUG] org.el: Fix first call of `org-paste-subtree'

An old bug is living in Org.
=C-c C-x C-y= ~org-paste-subtree~ fails just after Emacs start.
Maybe there are more similar issues.
- Start *new* instance of emacs.
- Copy some text that is Org subtree from some
*external* application (not Emacs).
I usually come across this issue when I copy capture
from my Firefox extension. Alternative:
#+begin_src elisp :results silent
(require 'ob-shell)
#+end_src
#+begin_src bash :results silent
printf '%b' '* Heading\n\nbody\n' |
xclip -in -selection clipborad >/dev/null
# xsel --input --clipboard
#+end_src
- Try =C-c C-x C-y= or [[elisp:(org-paste-subtree)]]
+ Actual result is the following message:
: user-error: The kill is not a (set of) tree(s). Use ‘C-y’ to
yank anyway
+ Expected result is a heading pasted at the end of the buffer.
+ The result may be achieved by calling [[elisp:(org-paste-subtree)]]
once more.
- The problem is ~(and kill-ring (current-kill 0))~ expression
in the definition of ~org-paste-subtree~.
Restart emacs and repeat steps above skipping ~org-paste-subtree~.
Notice that ~(current-kill 0)~ call changes value of ~kill-ring~.
#+begin_src elisp :results pp
(list (and kill-ring t) (current-kill 0) (and kill-ring t))
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: (nil "* Heading\n\nbody\n" t)
I suppose, it is better to let the error from ~current-kill~ to
propagate (in the case of empty `kill-ring' and clipboard). I do not
have Windows machine available to test the change.
There is another occurence of ~(and (current-kill 0))~
in ~org-kill-is-subtree-p~. I would rather transform it
to ~org~subtree-p~ to avoid call of ~current-kill~ inside, but this
patch does not include such change.

Subject: [PATCH] org.el: Fix first call of `org-paste-subtree'
* lisp/org.el (org-paste-subtree): Do not check `kill-ring' before
calling `current-kill' since the latter can pull content of clipboard.
First call of `org-paste-subtree' failed if nothing had been yanked
before since Emacs start but system clipboard had text with valid
subtree originating from other application. The bug was where since
the commit adding `org-paste-subtree'.
If both `kill-ring' and system clipboard are empty then `current-kill'
generates meaningful error.
