* Add three new hooks, XmlDumpWriterOpenPage, ModifyExportQuery and XmlDumpWriterWriteRevision, to WikiExporter class.
* Hook two of these events to add a DiscussionThreading section to XML dumps, containing the parent, ancestor and discussion page to which a post belongs, if it is indeed a LiquidThreads post (as determined by joining on the thread table).
* Deprecate old calling style for Thread constructor, the $children parameter has been unused for yonks.
* Overhaul deletion system. Totally remove deletion special page, deletion will now be handled through the standard MediaWiki deletion system. When a thread's "root" is deleted, the thread itself is marked as deleted. When the page is re-undeleted, the thread will be marked as restored.
* Move some class files from Lqt* to simply *.
* Remove HistoryIterator class, pointless.
* Miscellaneous code quality as found.
Includes core changes to pass comment along with ArticleRevisionUndeleted hook.
* The serialized message cache, which would have been redundant, has been removed. Similar performance characteristics can be achieved with $wgLocalisationCacheConf['manualRecache'] = true;
* Added a maintenance script rebuildLocalisationCache.php for offline rebuilding of the localisation cache.
* Extension i18n files can now contain any of the variables which can be set in Messages*.php. It is possible, and recommended, to use this feature instead of the hooks for special page aliases and magic words.
* $wgExtensionAliasesFiles, LanguageGetMagic and LanguageGetSpecialPageAliases are retained for backwards compatibility. $wgMessageCache->addMessages() and related functions have been removed. wfLoadExtensionMessages() is a no-op and can continue to be called for b/c.
* Introduced $wgCacheDirectory as a default location for the various local caches that have accumulated. Suggested $IP/cache as a good place for it in the default LocalSettings.php and created this directory with a deny-all .htaccess.
* Patched Exception.php to avoid using the message cache when an exception is thrown from within LocalisationCache, since this tends to fail horribly.
* Removed Language::getLocalisationArray(), Language::loadLocalisation(), Language::load()
* Fixed FileDependency::__sleep()
* In Cdb.php, fixed newlines in debug messages
In MessageCache::get():
* Replaced calls to $wgContLang capitalisation functions with plain PHP functions, reducing the typical case from 99us to 93us. Message cache keys are already documented as being restricted to ASCII.
* Implemented a more efficient way to filter out bogus language codes, reducing the "foo/en" case from 430us to 101us
* Optimised wfRunHooks() in the typical do-nothing case, from ~30us to ~3us. This reduced MessageCache::get() typical case time from 93us to 38us.
* Removed hook MessageNotInMwNs to save an extra 3us per cache hit. Reimplemented the only user (LocalisationUpdate) using the new hook LocalisationCacheRecache.
* Tweak User::isValidPassword() and hook. Return a STRING msg key on failure, not false. Updated all callers to handle this
* Split too-short/match username errors for clarity
* Update docs, messages.
* Merge fix for bug from maintenance-work branch
sites with updated CC-BY-SA license... Messages now available in
WikimediaMessages extension for localization:
* wikimedia-copyright - page footer
* wikimedia-copyrightwarning - edit page, above summary/save button
* wikimedia-editpage-tos-summary - edit page, below summary/save button & above edittools
Initial English defaults are taken from
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Licensing_update/Implementation
Ariel's search for other copyright-related messages looks fairly clean,
so we should be good here for now as $wgRightsText/$wgRightsUrl are
already updated.
Messages are overridden using new hooks, which can also be used to switch the
messages based on title or namespace -- this may be desirable for sites such
as mediawiki.org which keep some namespaces PD etc.
Use of the overridden messages by WikimediaMessages is switched in when
$wgRightsUrl is set to 'http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/'
* Remove the unused UserrightsChangeableGroups hook introduced in r39368 (1.14)
* Fix typo in Special:ListGroupRights introduced in r52083
* Prevent duplicate key display in Special:ListGroupRights (new behavior: if a permission is both assigned and revoked from a group, it only displays as revoked).
* Fix $wgRevokePermissions handling, it now runs after every group permission has been assigned in order to revoke the permission properly.
not have the 'userrights' permission.
* Add hook 'UserrightsGetCheckboxes' to give extensions the ability to modify
the arrangement of checkboxes on the Special:UserRights form
* Add hook 'UserrightsSaveUserGroups' to give extensions the ability to modify
the groups being added and removed last-minute.
* Make UserrightsForm::doSaveUserGroups(), addLogEntry() and helpers non-static again so CentralAuth can override them; remove the short-lived UserRightsLogEntry hook
* Let UserrightsForm::fetchUser() return a WikiErrorMsg on failure
* In ApiUserrights, use an instance of the UserrightsPage class rather than calling its methods statically. This also enables interwiki userrights in this module
* Add some messages to ApiBase::$messageMap
-- Introduce tagging of individual changes (revisions, logs, and on recentchanges). The tags are customisable, and currently settable by the Abuse Filter and by the TorBlock extension. The tags can be styled on the various pages on which they appear.
-- Introduces a schema change, three new tables (valid_tag, change_tag, and tag_summary).
* Therefore added a hook to catch them from an extension (successfully tested with the cldr extension (see next commit))
* Add a title tag to the interlanguage box entries. Only added when the title differ from the shwon text.
No change of behaviour until an extension is enabled.
