+ # Unlike with Subversion, Git cannot make a 'svn merge -rN:M file'.
+ # Git merge commands work with the committed changes, except in the
+ # implicit case of '-m' of git-checkout(1). So we should invent a
+ # kludge here. In principle, we need to create a throw-away branch
+ # in preparing for the merge itself. Since branches are cheap (and
+ # branching is fast), this shouldn't cost high.
+ #
+ # The main problem is the presence of _uncommitted_ local changes. One
+ # possible approach to get rid of this situation could be that we first
+ # make a temporary commit in the master branch and later restore the
+ # initial state (this is possible since Git has the ability to undo a
+ # commit, i.e. 'git-reset --soft HEAD^'). The method can be summarized
+ # as follows:
+ #
+ # - create a diff of HEAD:current-sha1
+ # - dummy commit
+ # - create a dummy branch and switch to it
+ # - rewind to past (reset --hard to the current-sha1)
+ # - apply the diff and commit
+ # - switch to master and do the merge with the dummy branch
+ # - make a soft reset (undo the last commit of master)
+ #
+ # The above method has some drawbacks: (1) it needs a redundant commit
+ # just to get rid of local changes, (2) somewhat slow because of the
+ # required system forks. Until someone points a more straight method
+ # (which I would be grateful) I have implemented an alternative method.
+ # In this approach, we hide all the modified files from Git by renaming

So you want to set up your own wiki using ikiwiki? This tutorial will walk
-you through setting up a wiki that is stored in [[Subversion]] and that has
-optional support for commits from the web.
+you through setting up a wiki that is stored in [[Subversion]] or [[Git]],
+and that has optional support for commits from the web.
1. [[Install]] ikiwiki. See [[download]] for where to get it.
-2. Create the subversion repository for your wiki.
+2. Create the master rcs repository for your wiki.
+ # Subversion
svnadmin create /svn/wikirepo
svn mkdir file:///svn/wikirepo/trunk -m create
+ # Git
+ mkdir /git/wikirepo
+ cd /git/wikirepo
+ git init-db
+
3. Check out the repository to make the working copy that ikiwiki will use.
+ # Subversion
svn co file:///svn/wikirepo/trunk ~/wikiwc
+ # Git
+ git clone /git/wikirepo ~/wikiwc
+
4. Build your wiki for the first time.
ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ ~/public_html/wiki/ \
used if you don't have a custom version, so let's start by making a
custom version of the wiki's index page:
- cp /usr/share/ikiwiki/basewiki/index.mdwn ~/wikiwc
- svn add ~/wikiwc/index.mdwn
- $EDITOR ~/wikiwc/index.mdwn
- svn commit ~/wikiwc/index.mdwn -m customised
+ cd ~/wikiwc
+ cp /usr/share/ikiwiki/basewiki/index.mdwn .
+ $EDITOR index.mdwn
+
+ # Subversion
+ svn add index.mdwn
+ svn commit -m customised index.mdwn
+
+ # Git
+ git add index.mdwn
+ git commit -m customised index.mdwn
+ git push origin
You can also add any files you like from scratch of course.
`doc/ikiwiki.setup` in the ikiwiki sources), and edit it.
Most of the options, like `wikiname` in the setup file are the same as
- ikiwiki's command line options (documented in [[usage]]. `srcdir`
- and `destdir` are the two directories you specify when
- running ikiwiki by hand. `svnrepo` is the path to your subversion
- repository. Make sure that all of these are pointing to the right
- directories, and read through and configure the rest of the file to your
- liking.

+ hand. `rcsrepo` is the path to your master rcs repository. Make sure
+ that all of these are pointing to the right directories, and read
+ through and configure the rest of the file to your liking.
- Note that the default file has a block to configure a svn wrapper. This
- sets up a [[post-commit]] hook to update the wiki.
+ Note that the default file has a block to configure an Rcs wrapper to
+ update the wiki. You need to uncomment the related block for whatever
+ rcs you use and comment out the other rcs blocks.
When you're satisfied, run `ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup`, and it
will set everything up and update your wiki.
`ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup`, and you're done!
9. Add [[PageHistory]] links to the top of pages. This requires you to have
- setup [[ViewCVS]] or something similar to access your [[Subversion]]
- repository. The `historyurl` setting makes ikiwiki add the links, and
- in that url, "\[[file]]" is replaced with the name of the file to view. So
- edit ikiwiki.setup and set `historyurl` to something like this:
+ setup a repository browser. For Subversion, you may use [[ViewCVS]] or
+ something similar to access your [[Subversion]] repository. For Git,
+ [[Gitweb]] can be used.
+
+ The `historyurl` setting makes ikiwiki add the links, and in that url,
+ "\[[file]]" is replaced with the name of the file to view. So edit
+ ikiwiki.setup and set `historyurl` to something like this for
+ Subversion:
`http://svn.host/trunk/\[[file]]?root=wiki`
+
+ Or this for Git:
+
+ `http://git.host/gitweb.cgi?p=wiki.git;a=history;f=[[file]]`
Then run `ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup` again.
