If you read the CHANGES file, you'll see this bit:

Upgrading your wiki - critical information

If you are NOT starting from scratch, you MUST convert your existing
data using the script MoinMoin/scripts/migration/12_to_13_migN.py.
If you run moin 1.2.x, begin with N=1 and proceed with incrementing
numbers.
If you already run some old 1.3 patchlevel, see the script comments
about what you need to apply.
