What is the proper way to make an empty edit of an existing article programmatically, in a
maintenance script? I tried this:
$title = Title::newFromText("My existing article name"); // succeeds
$wikiPage = new WikiPage($title); // succeeds
$wikiPage->doEditContent($wikiPage->getContent(Revision::RAW), '');
but doEditContent just sits there until I get "limit.sh: timed out" in my shell.
I can do an empty edit through the browser (click Edit, click Save) just fine.
Thanks,
