 // CHANGELOG
 // (minor and older changes stripped away, please see git history for details)
+//  2022-05-23: OpenGL: Reworking 2021-12-15 "Using buffer orphaning" so it only happens on Intel GPU, seems to cause problems otherwise. (#4468, #4825, #4832, #5127).
 //  2022-05-13: OpenGL: Fix state corruption on OpenGL ES 2.0 due to not preserving GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER_BINDING and vertex attribute states.
 //  2021-12-15: OpenGL: Using buffer orphaning + glBufferSubData(), seems to fix leaks with multi-viewports with some Intel HD drivers.
 //  2021-08-23: OpenGL: Fixed ES 3.0 shader ("#version 300 es") use normal precision floats to avoid wobbly rendering at HD resolutions.

+- Backends: OpenGL3: Partially revert 1.86 change of using glBufferSubData(): now only done on Intel GPU
+  based on querying glGetString(GL_VENDOR). Essentially we got report of accumulating leaks on Intel with
+  multi-viewports when using simple glBufferData() without orphaning, and report of corruptions on other GPUs
+  with multi-viewports when using orphaning and glBufferSubData(), so currently switching technique based on
+  GPU vendor, which unfortunately reinforce the cargo-cult nature of dealing with OpenGL drivers.
+  Navigating the space of mysterious OpenGL drivers is particularly difficult as they are known to rely on
+  application specific whitelisting. (#4468, #3381, #2981, #4825, #4832, #5127).
