I'd say, at a minimum, all of Wikimedia's extensions (and possibly all "major" extensions) should use preferred form. A few docs should also be updated and then this can be closed. (In reply to comment #6) > ;) Commit-id based version numbers will be fun when we switch to git *snicker* There's some way to get roughly equivalent functionality from Git. I don't remember if it's a truncated hash or it uses integers, but I know there's a hack that people have devised. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
