Closing windows in frame

[Antoine Hersen]

Hello,

I have a question that I did not manage to find an answer by myself
mostly because I do not know how to formulate properly so thanks for
trying to understand.

When I have a frame split in many windows and I check changes into a
version control, one of the windows will be used to ask me for a
change log. But when I am done and use C-c C-c the windows collapse
modifying my nicely layout.

So my question : Is there a way to have the windows not collapse and
just reverse to the buffer that was previously there ?

Thanks for your time.

I was once bugged by a similar behavior of `vc-revert-buffer'. I used
the following:

(defadvice vc-revert-buffer (around restore-window-config activate)
"Stop `vc-revert-buffer' from closing any windows."
(interactive)
(let ((win-config (current-window-configuration)))
ad-do-it
(set-window-configuration win-config)))

You could try that with vc-revert-buffer replaced with whatever C-c C-c
is bound to.
