About

Git-Mediawiki (GMW) is an extension to Git which handles a MediaWiki instance like a git repository, allowing edits to be done with a text editor and pushed back to the wiki. Pages using MW markup are given the file-extension .mw.

It is available in the standard Ubuntu repository, as of v25.04.

They have been looking for a new maintainer since 2016-02-24.

Questions

  • 2025-09-19 Does it give different extensions for pages with a different markup model?

Shortcomings

  • 2025-09-19 When page-titles include a "/", GMW does not put them in subfolders (even if the namespace supports subpages).
