This would assume, of course, that there's another repo somewhere that ikiwiki has access to, which works for HTTP-style remotes, but could be more problematic for SSH remotes that require a key. Another solution would be to make ikiwiki a remote itself and allow users to push big files to it. The only problem I see with this is those files would end up in the bare repository and not necessarily show up in the web rendering. Ideally, a big file pushed would be hardlinked between the two repos, but it seems [git-annex doesn't support that yet](http://git-annex.branchable.com/todo/wishlist:_use_hardlinks_for_local_clones). --[[anarcat]] + +> One technical problem with this is that ikiwiki doesn't allow symlinks +> for [[security]], but git-annex relies on symlinks (unless you're in +> direct mode, but I'm not sure that's really desirable here). +> I'd like to make symlinks possible without compromising security, +> but it'll be necessary to be quite careful. --[[smcv]] |
