2025-05-12contrib: remove "mw-to-git"Patrick Steinhardt1-124/+0
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.

2020-09-21remote-mediawiki doc: don't hardcode Debian PHP versionsÆvar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-5/+5
Change the hardcoded version 5 PHP versions to the version-agnostic packages. Currently Debian stable's version is 7.3, and there's a php7.3, php7.3-cli etc. package available (but no php5-*). The corresponding version-less package is a dependency package which depends on whatever the current stable version is. By not hardcoding the version these instructions won't be out of date when the next Debian/Ubuntu release happens.

2012-07-06git-remote-mediawiki: test environment of git-remote-mediawikiGuillaume Sasdy1-0/+124
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.
