+>> OK. I see two problems:
+
+>> 1. If I clone my wiki, I won't get an exact copy of it: I will lose the recentchanges history. This could be an acceptable limitation but IMO this should be documented.
+
+>> 2. The output of `hg status` is polluted. This could be solved trivially by adding a line containing `recentchanges` to `.hgignore`. Another alternative would be to store the `recentchanges` directory inside `$srdcir/.ikiwiki`.

+>> I think the ideal solution would be to build `$destdir/recentchanges/*` directly from the output of `hg log`. --[[buo]]
