Hi.
Using diff, I figured out that only 294 files have changed, most of them related to messages. Will it be safe to replace only these 294 files in order to upgrade from rc1 to rc2? If so, is anybody interested in a patch file?
Regards Sven

Yes, you can just update the files when upgrading from rc1 to rc2, there's no need to re-run the installer or to change LocalSettings.php.

Thanks for the answer.
I produced a patch file for upgrading from rc1 to rc2:
diff -upr mediawiki-1.13.0rc1 mediawiki-1.13.0rc2 > /tmp/patch-1.13.0rc1-rc2
and applied it like this in the installation directory:
patch -p1 < /tmp/patch-1.13.0rc1-rc2
Worked perfectly!
Sven P.S. Anybody wants to host this patch file?
You could store the patch file publicly at http://drop.io

For reference, the release generator script can generate a diff for you if you pass the previous version as an extra parameter. Comes in handy for these point releases!

Actually, the release generator (100 lines of shell script) does not support a previous version parameter, rather it tries to guess what the branch name of the previous release was, based on the supplied current version, using three perl one-liners and two tr calls. It doesn't understand release candidates, only stable releases.
I vote for rewriting the whole thing in a proper language (i.e. anything except shell script).

Whoops, I must have made it too smart for its own good... ;)

Shell script usually sounds good for the first 10 lines, then turns into hell. ;) Please do...

Advocating it written in a real language, it is a WTF shell script full of tr and regex... yep, the new one will be in perl :)
Hi,
How long would you "expect" it to be before 1.13 is a stable release? Obviously the whole 'how long is a piece of string' but days, weeks, months? I am only able to run stable versions in my environment and some of the functionality and extensions will make things much much easier than in 1.12.
Cheers Cameron
