Bug #: 39825
Summary: Special:Version can warn about '#' comments in
.git/config
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.20-git
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I upgraded to MediaWiki wmf/1.20wmf10 and now Special:Version prints the
following deprecation warning, one I don't recall seeing before, about my
.git/config file in one of my extensions:
Deprecated: Comments starting with '#' are deprecated in
.../extensions/E3Experiments/.git//config on line 6 in .../includes/GitInfo.php
on line 139".
I do have a # comment line in that config file. But '#' is a completely legit
comment symbol in .git/config [1]. GitInfo.php invokes PHP's parse_ini_file()
which in PHP 5.3 deprecates '#'.[2]
The workaround is to use ';' for comments in .git/config.
