* Update DEVELOPERS.md and UPGRADE with new way to use update.phpJon Harald Søby2023-06-161-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | When using the command that this commit changes, the console would give a warning that that way of using update.php is deprecated since 1.40, and that one should use maintenance/run.php instead. Follows up Ibd47e3f29f93238ccd3e607774927e639ba74ace and I2cd89a6a9218dadb1bc6088d1c7e1f2c85642902. Change-Id: Id4bdd7fb0f505d119f8cac574889b06012d5c22a
* Drop 1.34 db updatesAlexander Vorwerk2023-02-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | Per official policy, updates from versions older than two TLS releases are not supported. Change-Id: I3dc98fe61c8a508aa3ade694f8c0a6a00115031b
* Drop 1.32 and 1.33 db updatesAmir Sarabadani2022-09-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Per official policy, updates from versions older than two TLS releases are not supported. Finding the implicit marker is a bit tricky. The user might try to upgrade from a really old version that doesn't have tag_summary table and mistakenly think it's new and allow upgrade. So turning the check logic into a boolean AND where it must be new enough to have change_tag_def table AND new enough not to have tag_summary table.

* Bump minimum required version for upgrade to 1.31Alexander Vorwerk2022-03-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | The policy allows this and since 1.39 is going to be the next LTS release, I think it is fine to do this now. Change-Id: If426e0ee349252ccc0ba9c4222c7d6865ab57fa2

| | | | | | | | | The script has stopped working for quiet sometime now. If one still has a 1.4 (or previous) wiki, it should upgrade to 1.5 first. I do not think it is worth anytime to try to port the updater nor to mention a release note entry. Change-Id: Ic0e366e2c7086e371d486b05ca222f2853f64ccb
* (bug 38110) provide a way to separate out schema changesMarkAHershberger2012-11-211-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allows update.php to be run when $wgAllowSchemaUpdates = false. This is useful for non-WMF environments where strict DB permissions allow database updates (which update.php performs), but no schema changes (such as adding or dropping tables or indices which update.php also performs). It does this by adding the --schema and --noschema flags. Without either of these flags, update.php will perform exactly as before. With --noschema, all changes to the table structure or table additions are skipped. Only data changes are made. With --schema is used, no schema changes are made to the database, but the schema changes are saved to a separate SQL file that can be run. Change-Id: I96b4cfd4c02e9cbf46cc6a0499b87fb3b89020a0

In WebInstaller_Document::formatTextFile(): * Introduced new tab-indented syntax, which is equivalent to colon indents in ordinary wikitext. This was useful for reformatting the GPL. * Removed the special case for spaces preceding URLs, used tabs instead, with the above feature. * Removed the "numbers in square brackets" feature. The place where this was used, in README, was an unfortunate case where the square brackets originally indicated a footnote and its reference. Then another two "footnotes" were added with no corresponding reference, they just talked about random license-related stuff that happened to be similar to the footnote. It was never actually meant to be a numbered list. Fixed in README. * Convert from DOS line endings to UNIX early on, to simplify the regexes.
