[Mediawiki-l] Upgrading

[Jamie Bliss]

Usually, when I upgrade, I end up backing up the DB and
LocalSettings.php file and just copying the new files over the old
ones. (Except between 1.2 and 1.3). This worked fine for me yesterday
with 1.3.1 to 1.3.5. (I know this isn't exactly recomended, but it
works.)
