            Bug ID: 48359
           Summary: Add sha1 to list=recentchanges
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified

Tracking recent changes is a useful way for bots to stay in sync with a
MediaWiki installation.  One of the things I'd like to be able to track is
which revisions were reverted.  The recently added sha1 column is essential for
detecting reverts.  The sha1 column is available when making the request for a
revision (prop=revisions), but not available when requesting revisions in
recent changes (list=recentchanges).  It appears that part of the reason for
this is that the sha1 column does not appear in the MySQL recentchanges table.  

I propose that the rev_sha1 column be duplicated to the recentchanges
(rc_sha1?) table and exposed via the web api.
