Updating Canasta with every minor release #301

Open tosfos opened 1 year ago

I believe we switched to the canasta-stable model recently. But it looks like the stable branch has not been kept up-to-date with MediaWiki's minor release. These are low-risk and important since they include security patches and bug fixes. But it should be done quickly because sometimes there are significant bugs that have been fixed in core. For example, we keep running into a bug with the canonical server that was fixed in 1.39.3.

It seems like even Canasta latest is still on 1.39.1 but 1.39.2 was released in February. I'd suggest that there be a quarterly task to update the stable and release branches every time core releases a minor update. Please let me know if I'm missing something.

Until this happens, what is the recommended way to update to the latest Mediawiki minor release? Check out a copy from Github and change the MW_CORE_VERSION variable in the Canasta/CanastaWiki/Canasta/Dockerfile ?
