Create Git storage module.

Using simple-git or similar package that doesn't require native node compilation. (node-git is a no-go)

Once this module is complete I will start running the beta version for testing.

Would it be possible, to just take a special folder from the git repo?
Also it would be nice, if you could use multiple git repository and would be able to link it to a certain position in the wiki.

@climblinne This would vastly increase the complexity of this module and would break navigation on most git repos. There's no additional cost involved with dedicating a git repo to your docs so I'm not sure why you would want to use a single repo for completely different purposes.

NGPixel on 22 Feb 2019

@NGPixel There is a reasonable use case for that which would also mean to map multiple Git Repos:

Have your project Documentation inside a subfolder of your Project GIt, so it can be displayed on Github, GitEA, whatever.

Have an addition central and searchable Wiki.js Instance for indexing ALL of your project markdown files.

Currently I have to create an extra "wiki" Git Repo for every project (which is not so bad)

But then I have to run multiple Wiki instances which makes no sense at all.
Because the whole purpose of Wiki.js is to have a central searchable documentation server.

I don't want to put all my markdown files for all projects in one repo/wiki though cause they belong to the very project they were written for.

Wiki.js should be usable as a central Wiki hub / search index / navigation for multiple "file buckets" containing collections of Markdown files.

Yes, that is exactly my idea. We have multiple repo with separated documentation. To get a search over all of them, would be really great.

Without meaning to pry, is there any update on this ticket? I am itching to start trying the beta.

virgil on 24 Mar 2019

@virgil Git capabilities have been available for the last 2 beta releases. The only missing feature is being able to add all content created before the git module was activated, which is why this ticket isn't closed yet.

Music to my eyes good sir. I'll start to work on the new https://ethereum.wiki. Thank you.

What's the proper way for importing an existing git repo into wikijs 2.0? I rewrote some of the timestamps to be in the future, but still no effect.

@NGPixel what this bounty is for? What should be improve in current modules/git/storage.js?

This module is now feature complete in Build 91. Use the new Add Untracked Changes and Import Everything actions to import / export missing content.
