Overview
Minor code improvement - use exception rather than fatal
Before
CRM_Core_Error::fatal($message); shows the below regardless of whether debugging is enabled
After
Technical Details
In general we are working towards deprecating 'fatal' - in this case we can convert it to an exception & add handling to the exception to improve user experience
Comments
Note that I replicate this error when debugging but have not seen the duplicate contribution error 'out in the wild' - to replicate in debugging start doing a contribution, kill half way through & then re-submit.
@colemanw @seamuslee001 @monishdeb would be good to get your thoughts on this (ps. I bet @mattwire has hit this error!)
