Main use case I am trying to accomplish: Edit wiki pages offline.
1. Imagine you're the administrator of the site and you want to checkout the wiki sources to give them some love while on a train journey.
2. Or you are writing a complex document and you want to simply use your favourite $EDITOR
3. Learn a little more about [git](http://git.or.cz/)
# Workflow
## on webconverger.org/si.dabase.com/hendry
Wiki page created with [ikiwiki](http://ikiwiki.info). Example usb.mdwn [usb](http://webconverger.org/usb/)
## on monty (my laptop)
I wonder why a "pull" doesn't just init a repo like a "svn co" does?
Ah, I should have used `git-clone ssh://si.dabase.com/home/hendry/wikiwc/.git/`
monty:~/git-testing% git-init
Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
You might want to set some config variables like your email as this [tutorial](http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/tutorial.html) describes.
monty:~/git-testing% git-pull ssh://si.dabase.com/home/hendry/wikiwc/.git/

## on webconverger.org/si.dabase.com/hendry
hendry:239$ git-status
# On branch master
# Changes to be committed:
# (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
#
# modified: usb.mdwn
#
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
# .ikiwiki/
Great, we see the usb.mdwn file has been modified. Now we need to check it out to update the local work tree (and the wiki?)
hendry:242$ git-checkout master usb.mdwn
I find this a little odd... Is this a required step for ikiwiki?
# Stuff I am confused about
* this master/origin stuff
* why do I have to explicitly say the filename "usb.mdwn" for it to be updated?
* how ikiwiki interfaces with git. does it have its own working copy? or is it the files simply in ~/wikiwc?
* I know git-push seems unpopular (git-pull seems to have the emphasis), though I think it is really convenient
# Ack
Thanks to gitte on #git on Freenode
