+Can the instructions for using `ikiwiki-makerepo` be clarified. This command wants to create folders in the directory it is run in. Which directory should that be - `$SRCDIR?` --Andy
+
+----

It isn't intended that .ikiwiki be versioned, is it? Do you have a svn:ignore set?
Is there some magic way you can make the svn commands (and presumably commands for
the other VCSs here) ignore the .ikiwiki directory during step 8, when they import it?

These instructions should probably show how to use a bare Git repository
(`GIT_DIR=somewhere.git git-init-db`) rather than a repository with a full
working copy. You can always clone the repository if you want your own local
working copy. Furthermore, this allows you to make multiple commits to your
working copy before pushing them to the repository and causing the wiki to
update. --[[JoshTriplett]]

+
+Furthermore the git instructions should be changed to move the *.ikiwiki*
+directory back into the wiki's working copy directory, isn't it? --[[tschwinge]]
+
+> Yes, I think so. I will clean these instructions up unless somebody tells me we're missing something fundamental. --[[BartMassey]]

+Curious as to why support for CVS is not built in. --[[Luther]]
