we are currently using mediawiki 1.39.4, going to update to 1.39.6 . Please let me know if there are any bugs with this version or is it safe to update.
Topic on Talk:MediaWiki 1.39
As of now, 1.39 is LTS, so it should get proper treatment in terms of security updates. The release notes are available.
I understand that 1.39.6 contains a security update,
Should it be installed the same way we upgrade mediawiki version ?? Is there any easy method to install just the patches?
In theory, it is possible to download just the files that were changed. There is quite a lot of them, though you probably don't need all of them. Otherwise use your version control system and/or follow Manual:Upgrading.
thank you
