           Summary: File moves on foreign repo breaks file inclusion
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.21-git
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: File management

When a file is moved on a foreign repo, than all pages on the client using that
file has a broken file inclusion.

The problem is, that the purge of pages using the moved file can only be done
for local pages, because mediawiki only knows these pages.

Is there a way to keep the other files working, without purging the client
pages?

Redirects should not be deleted to not break file inclusion by clients, but
without purge on client side that does not help very well.

Steps to test:
On wiki "core" a page A has [[File:Old.png]]
Than on wiki "repo" the file Old.png is moved to New.png
Looking at page A of "core" gives a break file inclusion, because it is using
http://localhost/repo/images/9/9a/Old.png as src
