$ wget and uncompress
$ git init && git add .
$ git commit -m "MediaWiki release 1.21.2"

## Database settings
$_wgDBConnectionString = getenv('DATABASE_URL');
if (preg_match('%(.*?)://([^:]+):([^@]+)@([^:]+):(\d+)/(.*)%', $_wgDBConnectionString, $regs, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE)) {
  $wgDBtype = $regs[1][0];
  $wgDBuser = $regs[2][0];
  $wgDBpassword = $regs[3][0];
  $wgDBserver = $regs[4][0];
  $wgDBport = $regs[5][0];
  $wgDBname = $regs[6][0];
} else {
die("Failed to parse DB connection string");
}

$ git add LocalSettings.php
$ git push heroku master
