> Before creating a PR I would like to transition to git-subtree, so that future updates become a simple "git subtree merge" command (merging from a side branch that tracks unmodified scintilla, just importing the upstream tarball to git).

Can you expand on how this will work since the Scintilla directory in Geany is not a direct copy of the raw Scintilla repository?

And typing into and deleting in and pasting into?  In particular a thin vertical selection?  The thing I was most concerned about when I read that change in Scintilla is if Geany operations that take account of a rectangular selection still work?
