01:51:24<Rno>Hi! What does the --dumpxmlrevisions option in the dumpgenerator script do exactly? Is it necessary for a full backup if api.php is already available?
01:57:39<pokechu22>There are several different ways of exporting data: using the allrevisions api (which grabs revisions for the whole wiki), using the revisions api (which works by page), and using Special:Export. These all produce the same data, but allrevisions is the fastest option (as long as the site is using a new enough version of mediawiki for it to be supported)
01:59:00<Rno>Thanks!
