Thanks, pushed, and I'm marking the bug done.  See below for some
comments for your future contributions.

Done.  This is an unrelated change.

> 
> Support scrolling by tiling wheel
> 
> Scroll right and left using wheel-right and wheel-left; This revision

This should be a single line no longer than 70 characters.  Additional
lines can some after that, separated from the summary line by a blank
line.

> * doc/emacs/frames.texi (Mouse Commands): Document the change and recipe of 
> scroll less

This should end in a period, and be at most 70 characters.  Please use
"C-x 4 a" to format the message correctly.

> * lisp/mwheel.el (mwheel-scroll): Respond to wheel-right and wheel-left
> * lisp/mwheel.el (mwheel-tilt-scroll-p): Enable tilt scrolling

Log entries pertaining to the same source file should state the file
only once, like this:

* lisp/mwheel.el (mwheel-scroll): Respond to wheel-right and wheel-left.
(wheel-tilt-scroll-p): Enable tilt scrolling.

> # NEWS
> 
> ** Emacs can scroll horizontally using mouse, touchpad, and trackbar.
> You can start scrolling by customizing `mwheel-tilt-scroll-p'.  When
> direction of scroll is opposite, customize `mwheel-flip-direction'.

We use quoting 'like this' in NEWS.

It is best to send patches by invoking "git diff" or "git format-patch".

There's no need to take ``wheel'' in quotes more than once, when it is
first mentioned.  (It is quoted, because it's not a real wheel.)  You
can see that the existing text only quotes it once.

User variables should be indexed by using @vindex.

Defcustoms should have the :version tag stating the Emacs release
where they were first introduced, in this case 26.1.

I also made some of your defcustoms defvars, as I think there are too
many customizable variables in the patch.

Thanks again for working on this.
