Re: is it a bug [register]?

it is "feature": 

Vim fills this register with text deleted with the "d", "c", "s", "x" commands
or copied with the yank "y" command, regardless of whether or not a specific
register was used (e.g.  "xdd).  

sorry for the bothering...

update named reg, the unamed reg (@") was updated as well. It was not like that before.

tested with vim 7.4.214, started vim with -u NONE.

To reproduce, add two lines in a buffer:

111111
222222

on line1, press Y (yank the line), check :reg, ""(unnamed reg) is 111..  fine.
then move to line2, press "xY  (yank to reg x), check :reg, "x is 222.. ok, but "" is changed into 222... as well.

Is it a bug? Or I did something wrong?

Kent
