It seems the inputbox extension lost some modifications I did to permit bugzilla searches.
Could you tell me where the modified code is, so I can patch the newest inputbox extension with it? [...] If you really want, I can take some time to try a diff, but it could be a bit complicated.
BOFH answer: you are using the wrong version control system for the wiki. OK, I'll have to explain this... ;-) The easiest way is to use a SVN checkout directly from the svn.mediawiki.org server (branches/REL1_16/phase3 aka 1.16 branch). You can then just run a "svn diff" and see what was changed in the local copy. The same works for the extensions - check them out from svn.mediawiki.org and later just run a "svn diff". I'm using this method for the wikis I have on my server [1] and it makes maintenance much easier than unpacking tarballs ;-) A minor update means "svn up", a version update is a "svn switch" to the branch of the new release. And most important: Both keep my local changes without any additional work (except if they conflict with upstream changes). Of course this means that you can't put everything in the openSUSE SVN because that conflicts with the SVN informations from svn.mediawiki.org. You could instead use something else (for example git) and check in the whole SVN tree including the .svn directories. You can also do some SVN magic with vendor branches. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.advanced.vendorbr.html is a good explanation. But IMHO using another VCS on top of the upstream SVN tree is easier. (Well, at least if you know both VCS good enough. If you are a SVN god, vendor branches are the way to go of course ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] The wiki that I mentioned several times when discussing various extensions is http://www.hortipendium.de - targeted at professional, german-speaking ;-) gardeners, but also useful for your garden at home. --
