Changeset 36311 for trunk/src/wp-includes/pluggable-deprecated.php

Message:

Users: Deprecate the get_currentuserinfo() pluggable function.

It encourages an ugly pattern like global $userdata; get_currentuserinfo(); in plugins/themes. wp_get_current_user() should be used instead, e.g. $current_user = wp_get_current_user();.

Props scribu for initial patch.
Fixes #19615.
