=== Changes since MediaWiki 1.34.0-rc.0 ===
* (T231742) rdbms: Restore debug toolbar "Queries" feature.
* (T235392) Deprecate setting Parser::mTitle to null.
* Supporting commits for T235392 were also backported to prevent divergence
from master (MediaWiki 1.35).
+* (T234581) The 'jquery.tabIndex' module is deprecated.
+* Fix docs for GetUserBlock hooks.
+* Parser: Hard deprecate getConverterLanguage.
+* (T236810) A number of public methods of Parser were exposed only for
+ historical reasons and have been deprecated: doMagicLinks,
+ doDoubleUnderscore, doHeadings, doAllQuotes, replaceExternalLinks,

+ initialiseVariables, formatHeadings, testPst, testPreprocess, testSrvus,
+ areSubpagesAllowed, maybeDoSubpageLink, splitWhitespace, createAssocArgs,

+ stripAltText, replaceLinkHolders, replaceLinkHoldersText, armorLinks,
+ makeKnownLinkHolder, getImageParams, parseLinkParameter, stripAltText.
+* (T30798) $wgServer must now always be set in LocalSettings.php. This is most
+ likely the case already for any wiki installed after 1.18. The autodetection

+ attacks. Older wikis may need to update their LocalSettings.php file.
+* (T232169) Hard deprecate $wgSysopEmailBans.
+* (T236628) Fix for ArticleRevisionViewCustom hook in DifferenceEngine.php.

* (T226733) Add rate limiter to Special:ConfirmEmail.
+* $wgDiffEngine (T237049) – This configuration can be used to specify which
+ difference engine to use. MediaWiki continues to default to automatically
+ choosing the first of $wgExternalDiffEngine, wikidiff2, or php that is
+ usable.

'descriptionshorturl'.
