Change 933491 had a related patch set uploaded (by Tchanders; author: Tchanders):

[mediawiki/core@master] Don't report temporary users as belonging to autopromote groups

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/933491

Testing notes

This is easiest to test locally, since it relies on specific configuration.

Create an autopromote group

Set something like the following configuration:

$wgAutopromote = [
	'editedonce' => [
		'&',
		[ APCOND_EDITCOUNT, 1 ],
	],
];

This creates a group called 'editedonce', which users get autopromoted to after editing 1 time.

Check groups on Special:UserRights

• Create a new temporary user by editing
• Visit Special:UserRights/<the temp user's name>
• Before this task, they would be reported as belonging to the group 'editedonce'. After it, they shouldn't.

I confirmed the testing steps from T340462#8974248 locally (except I used the API to look up what groups the temp user belonged to, as Special:UserRights cannot be used with temp users since T340468).
