Hi,
I'm having a go at coding a feature request, and I have a question about messages. The feature is a new special page, so all of the code is within one file, the only thing that is outside that file is a require_once and some messages.
I was wondering where is the place to put new messages? I figured in Language.php, but how then do I update the database with them and create the relevant MediaWiki: pages?
Also, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker recommends creating a patch and posting it at bugzilla, but I'm on Windows - how do I create a cvs diff in this environment?
Thanks,
