Gitit wiki

(As of: 20YY-MM-DD)

Gitit is a wiki engine backed by a git or darcs filestore which uses (RCS). Pages and uploaded files can be modified either directly via the VCS's command-line tools, or through the wiki's web interface. Pandoc is used for markup processing, so pages may be written in (extended) markdown,, LaTeX, HTML, or literate Haskell, and, a great feature, can be exported in ten different formats, including , , , , OpenOffice , and MediaWiki markup. However, as can be seen on the WikiMatrix site, gitit has fairly limited 'wiki' functions when compared with say MediaWiki.

The Gitit wiki was a place to discuss the Gitit wiki engine and (since it runs on Gitit itself) to demonstrate its capabilities.

Building a wiki on top of a   system -- like Gitit does -- may be good way to build a fault-tolerant, high-availability wiki.
