Replaces
a ? a : b
patterns of ternary statements to use the Elvis operatora ?: b
.Null coalescing operator (
??
) was added in PHP 7.0, which WordPress now requires as the minimum version. However, to make this ticket focused and easier to review, this ticket only proposes the Elvis operator.On tainted lines, it follows WordPress CS to use uppercase constants (NULL instead of null, for example), and removes a few cases of unnecessary braces. Apart from them, the diff output should be quite minimal and straight forward.
Perhaps, the review will be easier with word-diff (
git show --word-diff
), or on GitHub, where it highlights word diffs in the line-diff mode.Trac ticket: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/58948
