  * Removed ./tests/qunit/index.html from core. It wasn't actively maintained and
    has been made obsolete when [[Special:JavaScriptTest/qunit]] was introduced,
    which actually uses ResourceLoader, LocalSettings and the Skin.
+ * Removed $wgDBtransactions global. This was only checked in one class
+   and only applies to MyISAM or similar DBs. Those should only be used
+   for archived sites anyway. We can't get edit conflicts on such sites,
+   so the WikiPage code wasn't useful there either.
