I think you could pick up that comment and use it as a blog post. What you wrote is great advice any way that you look at it.

Thanks. I was only downloading them individually as I haven’t got a computer I can install anything on! I was just too excited about 1.1.0 :P. When I do install it, it’ll be as a test wiki for Xinki Learn.

Agreed with Nick. If you want to run the bleeding edge code, please don’t pull each file individually from the repository: just do a SVN checkout for the trunk.

However, it doesn’t even look like 1.10 has been branched out from the trunk yet to ferment a little, so it’s going to be a little bit of time. Historically speaking, it should have been out tomorrow…

I’d wait if I were you - it’ll probably only be a week or so until 1.10 appears.

But, if you really can’t wait, then you could install subversion (e.g. on Debian/Ubuntu I think it’s just: apt-get install subversion), and then do:
svn co http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/
(which will download all the MediaWiki core files at once).

– All the best, Nick.
