We're not discussing composer in the way extensions use it.
We're only discussing the possibility that a *git* clone of core should require either `composer install` or `git submodules update --init` to run as new 3rd party libraries we use wouldn't be carelessly dumped into the mediawiki/core repo anymore. Tarballs will continue to be bundled with all 3rd party libraries we use and will still work out of the box.
So if this happens would that mean the next time I upgrade my installations with a "git pull" I'd need to either first install composer or do a "git submodules update --init"?

case 1) here on multiple wikis. Please dont follow the example of Extension:Maps (which is nearly impossible to install without composer) and continue to provide some easy method to install mediawiki for people like me.

Hi there,
this is a discussion happening on wikitech-l at the moment. I think this is also of interest to all the mediawiki users out there ;) Please share your thoughts!
Best, Markus
