+## using a local wiki to preview changes: an srcdir needed?
+I have read the hints about using a local wiki to preview changes, but I haven't understood: is it assumed that I should also have a separate "srcdir" for this local preview-wiki (as it is done for the main wiki site), or I could point the local ikiwiki's "srcdir" to the working dir? Can something bad happen if I do this? I guess no, because--as I see it--the reason to have 2 repos for the main site was only enabling pushing to it, so it's a peculiarity of git, and not a requirement for a clean functioning of ikiwiki.

+Ok, probably, I have answered my question myself, but I'll let this comment stay here, if someone else will be tinking about the same issue. --Ivan Z.
