Member Function Documentation

◆ doesWrites()

SpecialMergeHistory::doesWrites ( )

Indicates whether this special page may perform database writes.

bool

1.27

Reimplemented from SpecialPage.

◆ execute()

SpecialMergeHistory::execute (   $subPage)

Default execute method Checks user permissions.

This must be overridden by subclasses; it will be made abstract in a future version

Parameters
string | null$subPage

Reimplemented from SpecialPage.

◆ formatRevisionRow()

◆ getGroupName()

SpecialMergeHistory::getGroupName ( )
protected

Under which header this special page is listed in Special:SpecialPages See messages 'specialpages-group-*' for valid names This method defaults to group 'other'.

Returns
string

◆ loadRequestParams()

SpecialMergeHistory::loadRequestParams ( )

References $request, SpecialPage\getRequest(), and SpecialPage\getUser().

Referenced by execute().

◆ merge()

SpecialMergeHistory::merge ( )

Actually attempt the history move.

Todo:
if all versions of page A are moved to B and then a user tries to do a reverse-merge via the "unmerge" log link, then page A will still be a redirect (as it was after the original merge), though it will have the old revisions back from before (as expected). The user may have to "undo" the redirect manually to finish the "unmerge". Maybe this should delete redirects at the target page of merges?
Returns
bool Success
