[[meta title="Git"]]
[Git][git] is a distributed revison control system originally developed for
the Linux kernel. Ikiwiki supports storing a wiki in git.
[git]: http://git.or.cz/
Ikiwiki can run as a post-update hook to update a wiki whenever commits
come in. When running as a [[cgi]] with Git, ikiwiki automatically
commits edited pages, and uses the Git history to generate the
[[RecentChanges]] page.
[[Setup]] documents current best practice for using git with ikiwiki. This
involves setting up a pair of git repositories. This method isn't the most
obvious, but it works the best.
