The basic checkin/checkout functionality seems to work but there doesn't seem to be any way to make the post-commit hook work for a non-local server? +> This is difficult to do since ikiwiki's post-commit wrapper expects to +> run on a machine that contains both the svn repository and the .ikiwiki +> state directory.

This works in part but again the post-commit hook seems problematic. ---[[AdamShand]]
