DefaultSettings.php contains default configuration settings.

DefaultSettings.php should never be edited, since any changes made to it will be lost at every upgrade of MediaWiki. Rather, changes should be made to LocalSettings.php .

As of Mediawiki 1.38, including DefaultSettings.php in your LocalSettings.php will result in the error described at Phrabicator T311966:
