## Overview
-There are three possible level of decentralisation:
+There are several possible level of decentralisation:
0. [[default setup|rcs/git]], no decentralisation
1. [[a simple HTML mirror|tips/Git_repository_and_web_server_on_different_hosts/]]
- 2. separate `srcdir`, still requires a central bare repo - uses [[plugins/pinger]]
- 3. completely distinct ikiwiki installs, synchronised with [[plugins/contrib/gitpush]]

Here's a graphic overview of those:

+This is the configuration described in
+[[tips/Hosting_Ikiwiki_and_master_git_repository_on_different_machines]]. One server hosts the web server (and the [[Ikiwiki cgi|cgi]]) and the git source dir; a second server hosts the git bare repository. This can be used when you have very limited access to the git server.
