How do I setup an old ikiwiki repository on a new system?
|
|
|
|
I have a git repository from an old ikiwiki system.
|
|
I reformatted that hard drive, but saved the repository.
|
|
|
|
I copied it the repository to my new system, which is now the "master" host.
|
|
I installed ikiwiki on the new system.
|
|
|
|
How do I set up an ikiwiki system using a pre-existing repository (instead of creating a new one)? --[[JosephTurian]]

|
> Well, if you have:
|
|
> * A git repository of the wiki
|
|
> * A setup file for the wiki
|
|
>
|
|
> Then you should:
|
|
>
|
|
> 1. Manually set up a bare git repository, and push
|
|
> your backed up repository to it.
|
|
> 2. `git clone` from the bare git repository to
|
|
> recreate the ikiwiki srcdir
|
|
> 3. `git clone` from the bare git repository a second time,
|
|
> to create a checkout you can manually edit (optional)
|
|
> 4. run `ikiwiki --getctime --setup your.setup`
|
|
> The getctime will ensure page creation times are accurate
|
|
> by putting the info out of the git history,
|
|
> and only needs to be done once.
|

|
|

|
|
> `ikiwiki -dumpsetup` and edit the setup file. --[[Joey]]
