[Emacs-diffs] master 49fc040: Don't flash previous buffer when connecting with emacsclient

[Eli Zaretskii]

branch: master
commit 49fc040077b33bd1e78ee425575e76329b772a41
Author: Aaron Jensen <address@hidden>
Commit: Eli Zaretskii <address@hidden>

    Don't flash previous buffer when connecting with emacsclient
    
    * lisp/server.el (server-execute): Accept lambda for creating
    frame rather than frame.  Ensure newly created tty frame
    initially shows the correct buffer.
    (server-process-filter): Pass a lambda to server-execute to create
    a frame.  (Bug#24218)
