[[meta title="Git"]]

Git is a distributed revison control system originally developed for the Linux kernel. Ikiwiki supports storing a wiki in git.

Ikiwiki can run as a post-update hook to update a wiki whenever commits come in. When running as a [[cgi]] with Git, ikiwiki automatically commits edited pages, and uses the Git history to generate the [[RecentChanges]] page.
