At some point on the way to Emacs 25, VC has begun creating new windows to
display messages that would more appropriately fit into the echo area.
For example, you do C-x =, it’ll display a “no revisions between working
revision and work file” message. But that is shown in the echo area AND a
newly created window.
The consequence is that the user has to get rid of the superfluous mini window.
Also, mistakes happen - i.e., opening a new file, the new buffer will display
in a window that is only one line high, so one’s got to deal with that.
Bottomline, this shouldn’t happen. Use the echo area appropriately unless
there’s really something to display.
