(Apologies if this is a FAQ, but brief googling found nothing.) Can one edit a "true MediaWiki" (MW) in a manner similar to how one interacts with a GitHub wiki (GHW, aka gollum) https://github.com/blog/699-making-github-more-open-git-backed-wikis ? Why I ask: As part of an attempt to do more "open science" (more on that separately), I'm starting to use GHW instead of my group's MW. This is not as easy as I would like, and has one major problem: the github wiki engine (gollum) merely "supports" MW wikitext. I.e., there are bugs (things that work in "real" MW, but fail on GHW), and GHW's rendering is generally butt-ugly compared to MW. OTOH, editing a GHW is a joy. A GHW is backed by a git repo, so I can interact with it "VC-style": # whack away @ local files with my local editor # commit to my local repo # push to remote on github # refresh my browser and see the changes. (One can also run a local gollum and test locally before pushing "to the world," but I am too lazy for that.) I'd much love to have "the best of both worlds," i.e., a "real MW" with correct/pretty wikitext rendering, but with which I can interact in VC-style (and preferably with git). Can that be done? I.e., can MW be configured to do this, or is anyone working on a version that supports this interaction style? TIA, Tom Roche <Tom_Roche(a)pobox.com>
