+web. Changes that could not be made via the web will be automatically
+rejected.

+ git clone git://git.ikiwiki.info/

+Or like this if your firewall only passes http traffic (slow):
+
+ git clone http://git.ikiwiki.info/ikiwiki.git/

+The gitweb is [here](http://git.ikiwiki.info/?p=ikiwiki).
+
+Commits to this git repository are fed into [CIA](http://cia.vc), and can
+be browsed, subscribed to etc on its
+[project page](http://cia.vc/stats/project/ikiwiki). They're also fed into
+[twitter](http://twitter.com/ikiwiki).
+
+## personal git repositories
+
+You are of course free to set up your own ikiwiki git repository with your
+own [[patches|patch]]. If you list it here, the `gitremotes` script will
+automatically add it to git remotes. Your repo will automatically be pulled
+into [[Joey]]'s working tree. This is recommended. :-)

+## branches
+
+Some of the branches included in the main repository include:
+
+* `gallery` contains the [[todo/Gallery]] plugin. It's not yet merged
+ due to license issues. Also some bits need to be tweaked to make it
+ work with the current *master* branch again.
+* `html` is an unfinished attempt at making ikiwiki output HTML 4.01
+ instead of xhtml.
+* `wikiwyg` adds [[todo/wikiwyg]] support. It is unmerged pending some
+ changes.
+* `darcs` is being used to add darcs support.
+* `debian-stable` is used for updates to the old version included in
+ Debian's stable release, and `debian-testing` is used for updates to
+ Debian's testing release.
+* `pristine-tar` contains deltas that
+ [pristine-tar](http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/pristine-tar)
+ can use to recreate released tarballs of ikiwiki
