[monotone](http://monotone.ca/) is a distributed revision control system.

Ikiwiki supports storing a wiki in tla.

Ikiwiki supports storing a wiki in Monotone and editing it using the [[cgi]] interface.
|
||||
It will use the Monotone logs to generate the [[RecentChanges]] page.
|
||||
|
||||
This requires the Monotone perl module from the monotone contrib/ directory
|
||||
to be installed. In particlar, it needs version 0.03 or higher of that module.

It is available from the monotone source repository at:

The monotone support requires the Monotone perl module (from the contrib/ directory
|
||||
in the monotone source) to be installed. In particular, it needs version 0.03 or higher of that module.
|
||||
The module is available from the monotone source repository at:

Monotone support works, but there are still a few minor missing bits (listed here so they are not forgotten):
|
||||
* At the moment there are no links to display diffs between revisions. It shouldn't be hard to add links to a [ViewMTN](http://grahame.angrygoats.net/moinmoin/ViewMTN) instance, but it hasn't been done yet.
|
||||
* The [[post-commit]] hook support, so that Ikiwiki sends change notifications when people commit using Monotone rather than the web interface, is partially implemented and untested.
|
||||
* Documentation (this page) could be improved.
|
||||
* If you have both a conflict and a simultaneous rename on a file, then Ikiwiki may get confused.
|
||||
|
||||
There is also a mismatch between the way Ikiwiki handles conflicts and the way Monotone handles conflicts. At present, if there is a conflict, then Ikiwiki will commit a revision with conflict markers before presenting it to the user. This is ugly, but there is no clean way to fix it at present.
