If you have lots of extensions; and maintain a git checkout for each extension, I wrote a script to help with upgrades: https://freephile.org/wiki/MediaWiki/Upgrade/REL1_26_to_REL1_27 The script checks each extension directory for a .git dir, the status of the current checkout, whether or not there is a compser.json and/or composer.lock file,
You might want to add a "-q" to quiet the output of *git fetch* The script would need to be configured for the releases in mind (e.g. to upgrade REL1_28 to REL1_29), and to change it from "reporting" mode to "upgrade" mode, you must set $doUpgrade to *true.* Produces output like the following in "reporting" mode: sudo php ./inspectExtensions.php Directories marked with * are git controlled and decorated with their current branch matching REL1_28 AJAXPoll REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 && composer install --no-dev AdminLinks REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 && composer install --no-dev AntiBot REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 AntiSpoof REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 && composer install --no-dev ApprovedRevs master Arrays REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 BatchUserRights REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 BetaFeatures REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 Bootstrap CSS REL1_28 upgradable origin/REL1_29 git checkout -b REL1_29 origin/REL1_29 CategorySuggest (detached ... ...
