* Note: follows up a4b3979160
* Cleanup up transaction statements a bit; transactions don't effect the lock calls
* Also made DatabaseMysql::unlock() actually return a bool
Change-Id: Iade2efa94165b6918eae0863716cc163f36a07b8
Also made file/class documentation more consistent and removed a duplicate comment from SpecialPageFactory.php in SpecialPage.php.
Change-Id: I99dd2de7fe461f2fad4e0bd315ebc2899958a90f
* Made SiteStatsUpdate fields protected
* Added factory function for unretarded object construction
* Changed FileRepo code to use deferred stats updates like everything else

$wgDeferredUpdateList[] = new HTMLCacheUpdate( $title, "sometable" );
I kept b/c with $wgDeferredUpdateList for now, but seeing as only 3 exts in svn use it (FileSearch, FlaggedRevs and WikiScripts), I'd like to deprecate it pretty soon :)
* (bug 26033, bug 24754) Added $wgArticleCountMethod to have a more flexible way to define which method to use to define if a page is an article or not and deprecated $wgUseCommaCount. There is now a new 'any' method to count any article that is in a content namespace and not a redirect.
* (bug 11868) If using links to count articles, Article::isCountable() will now use the ParserOutput to check if there's a link instead of checking for the "[[" string. Changed Article::isCountable() to take a stdObject or false for the first parameters. If false is passed, the result will be based on the current article's state (i.e. database). The only call outside of the Article class is in DeleteAction (including extensions).
* Removed this horror of Article::$mGoodAdjustment and Article::$mTotalAdjustment, replaced by the new $created parameter on Article::editUpdates(); simplified Article::createUpdates()
* Updated Import.php to take advantage of the new parameter and make a single call to Article::editUpdates()
Introduced wgActiveUserDays, which defaults to 30 days as used on wmf.
This way the number can be more easily compared between wikis.
We no longer lie to users if the actual rc length is longer than the limit.
* Docs have been updated to indicate the standard on how to write maintenance scripts (MW.org docs will follow) Have ported vast majority of maintenance scripts to new format. Remaining ones (mostly FiveUpgrade-related) are a bit more tricky. commandLine.inc is untouched for now. Many have gotten code-style updates as well. Deleted .inc files were only used by their .php counterparts, and have been merged into single files.
* (bug 11867) Lock error on redirect table when running orphans.php
* (bug 16322) Allow maintenance scripts to accept DB user/pass over input or params
* (bug 18566) Maintenance script to un/protect pages
* initStats overhaul, now uses class SiteStatsInit. Also fixes bug 18930
* (bug 16322) Allow maint scripts to accept DB user/pass over input or params if no AdminSettings.php
* (bug 18768) Remove AdminSettings.php from MediaWiki core
* (bug 19157) createAndPromote error on bad password
* (bug 14201) Create AdminSettings.php during wiki installation, in the same way as LocalSettings.php
* Introduce new Maintenance class framework and port a good number of scripts over; the ones that are left are a little more complicated. Read the docs.
* Not deleting "unused" files yet, don't want to break everything at once :)
* Made the upgrader work with SQLite
* Implemented missing schema info functionality in DatabaseSqlite
* Merged the SQLite and MySQL schemas into the one file with the help of some replaceVars() hacks.
* Moved all primary key definitions to the field definition, moved all indexes to CREATE INDEX statements, for best SQLite compatibility.
* Made all autoincrement fields primary keys, as required by SQLite.
* Removed meaningless buzzword from the category table comment
* tables.sql: s/'0'/0/
* In SQLite the index names have DB scope. Renamed archive.usertext_timestamp, user_newtalk.user_id, user_newtalk.user_ip
* SQLite does not support UPDATE with LIMIT by default. Removed all instances I could find.
* Made query errors work in the installer.
* Fixed DatabaseSqlite::lastErrno(), made SQLITE_SCHEMA errors automatically reissue the query as suggested on sqlite-users. Otherwise upgrade breaks.
* Removed miscellaneous status information from getServerVersion(), that's not the place to put it
