#25860 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

Copy version.php last during updates

Description

Sometimes when updating, the process fails mid-way due to circumstances out of our control.

In some cases, version.php may be copied before the error occurs, when this happens WordPress believes that it's $new_version rather than the previous version.

We should instead, only copy version.php over last, so as to ensure that we don't end up in that situation.
