Download from Git/sv


 * "Sedan MediaWiki 1.19beta2, 1.18.2, 1.17.3, använder MediaWiki bas och tillägg Git för versionshantering. För äldre versioner, se Subversion"

Git är ett distribuerat versionshanteringssystem som möjliggör att användare laddar ned den absolut senaste versionen av en gren, utan att behöva vänta på att någon paketerar den. MediaWiki kan snabbare göra leveransversioner, och det kommer vara lättare för dig att uppdatera din installation, rulla tillbaka en uppgradering, eller skicka programfixar. (Kom dock ihåg att officiella stabila leveransversioner är mindre riskfyllda.)

See Git for more details, particularly for making contributions. Below are some quick directions for a couple common tasks.

Prerequisites
You must have Git installed before you can use it. There are many different ways to acquire Git, depending on your operating system. For source and official binaries, check out git-scm.com. For alternative ways to install Git, use your favorite search engine to find instructions for your operating system.

It is recommended that you have composer installed to download and install third party libraries, but not required.

Ladda ned
You can currently download MediaWiki core (phase3 on SVN) using Git, as well as any extension currently installed on the Wikimedia Foundation server cluster.

Det första steget är att klona MediaWiki-arkivet. Detta kan ta ett tag.

Ange det följande på kommandoraden: git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core.git

In the case that you see "The requested URL returned error: 403" or "error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core.git" you need to check your git client version git --version and upgrade to at least git 1.7, versions 1:1.7.2.3-2.2~bpo50+1, 1.7.9.2 and 1.7.9.6 are known to work.

This clones the entire MediaWiki core repository into a subdirectory named core. The default 'branch' will be the cutting-edge, developer version of MediaWiki. Once the repository is cloned, you can easily switch to different branches or tags (see below), including those tracking stable versions of MediaWiki.

Download for development
If you have Developer access (which is easy to request): git clone ssh:// @gerrit.wikimedia.org:29418/mediawiki/core.git



Fetch external libraries
Starting with MediaWiki 1.25, some external libraries that MediaWiki requires are no longer in this "core" git repository. We use composer to manage them. To install these needed libraries:


 * Download and install composer, switch to the core directory and then run . Note that if you have an existing   file you will need to run   instead.


 * If you don't want to use composer, or if you want to use the same set of vendor libraries as used on the WMF production cluster, you can instead   to create a   directory inside the core folder of your MediaWiki installation.

WMF branches
Remote branches track the MediaWiki versions used on the Wikimedia Foundation server cluster. These may not be entirely stable, but they receive very quick bug fixes and are generally stable enough – after all, these are what major projects such as Wikipedia are using. Once a REL* branch is considered 'stable', we 'tag' it and turn it into a tarball release.

To see what branches are available, you switch into your MediaWiki clone and issue the following command: git branch -r | sort -V Major releases are denoted by "origin/REL ", e.g. "origin/". To switch to a particular release branch: git checkout -b REL origin/REL For example, to switch to the current stable version,, enter: git checkout -b origin/

MediaWiki tags (stable version)
Alternatively, specific stable versions of MediaWiki are tracked using 'tags'. These are analogous to the tarball releases. You can see the versions available with: git tag -l | sort -V Using non GNU sort command, such as on Mac OS X, you have to rely on the good old separators: git tag -l | sort -n -t. -k1 -k2 -k3

To use a specific tag: git checkout

Latest development version of MediaWiki
The latest development version of MediaWiki is tracked in the 'master' branch. This is what is locally checked out by default when you first clone the MediaWiki repository. If you have switched to another branch but would like to switch back to using bleeding-edge MediaWiki, do: git checkout master

Håll dig uppdaterad
If you're using a particular branch or the development version of MediaWiki, picking up the latest changes is really easy. Change into your MediaWiki clone directory and issue the pull command: git pull All of the latest changes for the branch you are using will be applied.

Also, after updating/upgrading you should run the MediaWiki Update script from the command line: php maintenance/update.php

Switching to a different version
Switching to a different version of MediaWiki is far simpler with Git than with SVN. Each of our versions are tracked as branches or tags. In order to switch to one of these, all you have to do is 'checkout' the particular branch or tag you want from within your MediaWiki clone directory: git checkout or git checkout The changes will be applied automatically and you will be all set to go.

Using Git to download MediaWiki extensions

 * List of extensions in git

Ladda ned en förlängning

 *  should be replaced with the name of the extension you want to download, without spaces. For Extension:TitleKey, it would be TitleKey. (case sensitive!)

Download and clone an extension from Git:

cd /path/to/extensions git clone https: //gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/.git

Developers clone with: git clone ssh:// @gerrit.wikimedia.org:29418/mediawiki/extensions/.git Source code can be inspected with:

 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gitweb?p=mediawiki/extensions/.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/master;hb=master

Download all extensions
If you prefer to have all MediaWiki extensions that are at gerrit.wikimedia.org checked out to your machine, do the following:

To update the extensions to their latest versions, just do this:

To track a specific branch:

Ta bort en förlängning
Ta bort förlängningens katalog och ta bort " " från.

Använd Git för att ladda ned MediaWiki-utseenden

 * Lista av utseenden i git

MediaWiki 1.24 och senare inkluderar inte utseenden i Git-nedladdningen.

Följ exakt samma process som för förlängningar (beskrivet i en tidigare sektion), men använd  istället för   i alla URLer och sökvägar.

Detaljerade installationsinstruktioner finns på varje utseendes sida här på MediaWiki.org, till exempel Skin:Vector#Installation. Instruktioner för alla andra utseenden är liktydiga.
