I'm playing around with various ways that I can use subversion with ikiwiki.
- Is it possible to have ikiwiki point to a subversion repository which is on a different server? 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. However, with recent versions of ikiwiki, you can get
away without running the post-commit wrapper on commit, and all you lose
is the ability to send commit notification emails.
(And now that [[recentchanges]] includes rss, you can just subscribe to
that, no need to worry about commit notification emails anymore.)
- Is it possible / sensible to have ikiwiki share a subversion repository with other data (either completely unrelated files or another ikiwiki instance)? This works in part but again the post-commit hook seems problematic.

Sure, see ikiwiki's subversion repository for example of non-wiki files
in the same repo. If you have two wikis in one repository, you will need
to write a post-commit script that calls the post-commit wrappers for each
wiki. --[[Joey]]
