Can we please have a very brief HOWTO?
I have a Moin wiki in /var/www/wiki and want to create an IkIwiki clone of it in /var/www/ikiwiki backed by a git repos in /data/ikiwiki.

I tried:

- mkdir /data/ikiwiki
- PATH=.:/usr/lib/git-core:$PATH ./moin2iki /data/ikiwiki http://localhost/wiki
-but this failed. (BTW, I don't usually put . in my PATH). The failure appears to be that the converter doesn't actually create an ikiwiki instance, but appears to want to update one:
