Files Changed In Drupal Upgrade From 5.2 - 5.3

Files Changed in Drupal Upgrade from 5.2 to 5.3

Here is a list of files that have been modified since Drupal version 5.2. New files are highlighted in blue; files that have been removed by the upgrade are highlighted in red. Unchanged files are not listed, unless the number of files changed greatly exceeds the number left unchanged, in this case I will list all the files that were not changed in orange. I will list the directories followed by the files within them that were updated. While I've done my best to maintain their accuracy, I do not guarantee the correctness of these lists, and will not be held responsible for any problems you encounter as a result of their use. If unsure, please follow the official upgrade instructions included in your distribution's download.

Changes to .htaccess

For those of you that don't want to have to port over all your .htaccess customizations, here are the only changes made in that file since version 5.2:

Copy and replace these lines:

<FilesMatch "(\.(engine|inc|info|install|module|profile|po|sh|.*sql|theme|tpl(\.php)?|xtmpl)|
code-style\.pl|Entries.*|Repository|Root|Tag|Template)$">
Order allow,deny
</FilesMatch>

With these:

<FilesMatch "\.(engine|inc|info|install|module|profile|po|sh|.*sql|theme|tpl(\.php)?|xtmpl)$|^
(code-style\.pl|Entries.*|Repository|Root|Tag|Template)$">
Order allow,deny
</FilesMatch>

And update the signature to reflect the updated .htaccess version:

# $Id: .htaccess,v 1.81.2.3 2007/09/21 12:24:22 drumm Exp $
