The "mw-to-git" directory contains tools for accessing MediaWiki via
Git. The scripts are essentially unmaintained in Git: despite a couple
of global cleanups, the last changes were a couple of security-related
issues part of 9a8606465e8 (remote-mediawiki: use "sh" to eliminate
unquoted commands, 2020-09-21) and its parents. We don't ever run any of
the tests so it is more likely than not that many of the tests have been
bitrotting, like e.g. documented in f8ab018dafc (remote-mediawiki tests:
annotate failing tests, 2020-09-21).
According to Matthieu Moy [1], one of the original developers of this
tool, it didn't receive any attention recently and there is no
motivation to keep maintaining it anymore in the community. The project
has been spun out of Git [2] and thus has a new official home, but did
not receive much attention over there, either.
As such, it seems like the MediaWiki transport helper is slowly fading
away. But given that there is a new home, it doesn't make sense to have
it as part of Git anymore only to let it rot. Remove the directory.

Explicitly set the default goal at the very top of various makefiles.
This is already present in some makefiles, but not all of them.
In particular, this corrects a regression introduced in a38edab7c8
(Makefile: generate doc versions via GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06). That
commit added some config files as build targets for the Documentation
directory, and put the target configuration in a sensible place.
Unfortunately, that sensible place was above any other build target
definitions, meaning the default goal changed to being those
configuration files only, rather than the HTML and man page
documentation.

Commit 20d2a30f (Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with simple make rules)
removed a target that allowed Makefiles from contrib/ to get the correct
install path. This introduces a new target for main Makefile and fixes
installation for Mediawiki module.
v2: Pass prefix as that can have influence as well, add single quotes
for _SQ variant.

Build and installation procedure clean-up.
* jn/mediawiki-makefile-updates:
git-remote-mediawiki build: handle DESTDIR/INSTLIBDIR with whitespace
git-remote-mediawiki build: make 'install' command configurable
git-remote-mediawiki: honor DESTDIR in "make install"
git-remote-mediawiki: do not remove installed files in "clean" target

Quote DESTDIR and INSTLIBDIR for the shell in the same way as is done in
the toplevel Makefile to avoid confusion in case they contain shell
metacharacters.

So now you can run
DESTDIR=$(pwd)/tmp make -Ccontrib/mw-to-git install
to install the mediawiki remote helper, git-mw tool, and Git::Mediawiki
perl module under tmp/ as preparation for zipping it up and extracting
on another machine.
While at it, make sure the directory that should contain Git::Mediawiki
exists before putting a file there. Without this patch, the makefile
uses DESTDIR when installing git-mw and git-remote-mediawiki but not
the perl module, resulting in errors from "make install" if the
$(INSTLIBDIR)/Git directory does not exist:
install: cannot create regular file \
'/usr/share/perl/5.18.1/Git/Mediawiki.pm': No such file or directory

For now, git-remote-mediawiki is only a remote-helper. This patch adds a new
toolset script in which we will be able to build new tools for
git-remote-mediawiki.
This toolset uses a subcommand-mechanism to launch the proper action. For now
only the 'help' subcommand is implemented. It also provides some generic code
for the verbose and help command line options.

The introduction of the Git::Mediawiki package makes it impossible to test,
without installation, git-remote-mediawiki and git-mw.
Using a git bin-wrapper enables us to define proper $GITPERLLIB to force the
use of the developement version of the Git::Mediawiki package, bypassing its
installed version if any.
An alternate solution was to 'install' all the files required at each build
but it pollutes the toplevel with untracked files.

We would want to allow the user to preview what he has edited locally
before pushing it out (and thus creating a non-removable revision in
the mediawiki's history).
This patch introduces a new perl package in which we will be able to
share code between that new tool and the remote helper:
git-remote-mediawiki.perl.
A perl package offers the best way to handle such case: Each script
can select what should be imported in its namespace. The package
namespacing limits the use of side effects in the shared code.
An alternate solution is to concatenate a "toolset" file with each
*.perl when 'make'-ing the project. In that scheme, everything is
imported in the script's namespace. Plus, files should be renamed in
order to chain to Git's toplevel makefile. Hence, this solution is not
acceptable.

Option "-2" launches perlcritic with level 2. Levels go from 5 (most pertinent)
to 1. Rules of level 1 are mostly a question of style, and are therefore
ignored.

This makes the Makefile simpler, while providing more features, and more
consistency (the exact same rules with the exact same configuration as
Git official commands are applied with the new version).

In order to test git-remote-mediawiki, a set of functions is needed to
manage a MediaWiki: edit a page, remove a page, fetch a page, fetch all
pages on a given wiki.
A few helper function are also provided to check the content of
directories.
In addition, this patch provides Makefiles to execute tests.
See the README file for more details.
