Under parallel development, when something is worth being commented
in upgrade.txt notes, it will be applied to all the development branches
using the "earliest" one to be released. So, if something changes
in 3.10 (and also is applied to master), the upgrade.txt notes will
show 3.10 in both branches.
Of course, if something only goes to one dev branch (say master), then the
master version will be used in the notes (4.0 in this case).
This commit introduces the following new flags:
--no-composer-self-update Disable composer self-update of the
composer.phar utility
--no-composer-upgrade Disable upgrade of development
dependencies using Composer.
--disable-composer Disable both composer self-update and
composer upgrade
version = 2021052500 release version
requires= 2021052500 same than version
Why 20210525? (25th May 2021) ?
Because master is going to be Moodle 4.0, to be released
on November 2021. And, until then, we are going to have
a couple of "intermediate" releases:
- Moodle 3.10 to be released 9th November 2020. (2020110900)
This version will be using versions from today to 2020110900
(once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).
- Moodle 3.11 to be released 10th May 2021. (2021051000)
This version will be using versions from 3.10 release to 2021051000
(once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).
That means that all versions from today to 2021051000 are going
to be used by those 2 "intermediate" releases (3.10 and 3.11).
And we cannot use them in master, because it's forbidden to have
any overlapping of versions between branches (or different upgrade
paths will fail).
So, get that 2021051000, let's add it a couple of weeks to cover
the on-sync period (or a 2 weeks delay max!) and, the first version
that master can "own" in exclusive (without any overlap) is, exactly,
25th May 2021, hence our 20210525.
The `core\plugininfo\base::is_enabled()` uses three-state logic for its
return value. It can return null as a valid value as per its
documentation. We need to test for the explicit false value in this
case.
To make the attached Behat test able to identify the table, the caption
is added. It seems to be helpful for all users so I leave it displayed
without using the accesshide mechanism.
The earlier CONTRIB plugin versions of the tool (<33.2.0, <34.2.0) were
missing the following columns in the data requests table:
* commentsformat
* dpocommentformat
And the upgrade scripts for the merged tool failed in
Moodle 3.3.8+/3.3.0+ failed to add these columns.
So a site which uses the CONTRIB plugin and eventually upgrading to 3.9
will encounter an error during upgrade because of the missing
dpocommentformat column.
