GitLab/Markdown

About

GitLab's default text markup is Markdown, with some enhancements in all contexts and additional specific enhancements in the wiki.

Issues

• Apparently cannot deal with spaces in filenames, or at least needs non-intuitive markup (%20, maybe?) to represent them.
• There is no way to do a hierarchical link to a subpage without also naming the current page.

Questions

• Is there any way to caption an image? (as in MW)
• Are templates a thing? (as in MW) -- tentatively no

Features That Would Be Nice

• Some kind of automatic table-of-contents generator
  • preferably invoked by a tag of some sort in the text so it can be placed appropriately.
    • ideally, the tag should allow specifying a mask of files to index, and there should be a "title" tag that documents could use to specify the link-text to use
