MediaWiki 1.3.8 is a bugfix release. Those running wikis with uploads enabled are strongly recommended to upgrade as this fixes several problems with overwriting previously-uploaded files.
(Users already running 1.3.7 who want only the upload fix need copy in only the updated SpecialUpload.php. However including all updated files is recommended as there are a number of other bug fixes.)
Changes from 1.3.7:
- (bug 506) fix array_key_exists() warning for IIS servers using ISAPI mode
- (bug 718) fix bad charset in (file) cached pages
- use local numerals in category page (for Hindi et al)
- alias month abbreviations to month names in Hindi
- add localized numerals for Gujarati and Kannada
- fix Category and project namespaces for Hindi
- Don't output bogus timestamp on Special:Recentchanges if no entries
- Correct template include path which broke some but not all Windows installs
- Fix edit form submission problem with some PHP versions
- Disallow unreachable titles with %XX hex codes
- Allow page 0 to be renamed
- (bug 774) when saving with section=new, return to the anchor as with existing numbered section edits
- Experimental shared upload overlay area (disabled by default)
- (bug 806) Removed some "Wikipedia" hardcoding in German localization
- User option localization fix for some extensions
- (bug 809) now try to load the mysql php extension if it isn't loaded
- (bug 848) fix error message in Special:Newpages RSS and Atom feeds
- (bug 26) fix cache headers on anon talk page notification
- (bug 874) added 'cgi' to wgFileBlacklist
- (bug 862) localize date and time format for Finnish
- (bug 548) Don't overwrite images until the user confirms it
