Hi all! I'm the main developer of the ProveIt gadget <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Gadget-ProveIt>, a reference manager for Wikipedia. The code is tracked via Phabricator, reviewed via Gerrit, and served to the various Wikipedias from Commons. Each wiki has a unique initialization code <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-ProveIt.js> that sets some local config and then requests the main code from Commons (JavaScript, CSS and JSON). Every time I merge a new change via Gerrit, I need to manually update the Commons pages so that the Wikipedias have the latest code. This is sub-optimal. Ideally, the Wikipedias should request the code directly from Diffusion, so that when developers merge new changes, they are immediately available (and we don't need interface rights or manual work in Commons). However, when I go to the Diffusion of the gadget <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/1884/>, click on the main proveit.js file, and click on "View Raw File", I get to a URL like the following: https://phab.wmfusercontent.org/file/data/iapd7kogqo5x2naywwlq/PHID- FILE-dkxynh42aocsg5gmepxw/proveit.js The URL of the raw file changes with every click and doesn't have the proper MIME type header, so it's useless for serving the code. I think it would be very useful, for my case and others, to have a stable URL that serves the latest code with the proper MIME type heading. In other words, a CDN, which may or may not be integrated with Diffusion.
