-Git is a distributed revison control system originally developed for the linux kernel. Ikiki supports storing a wiki in git.
+Ikiwiki, and this documentation wiki, are developed in a git repository and
+can be checked out like this:
 
-Ikiwiki can run as a post-update hook to update a wiki whenever commits
-come in. When running as a [[cgi]] with Git, ikiwiki automatically
-commits edited pages, and uses the Git history to generate the [[RecentChanges]] page.
\ No newline at end of file
+[[!template id=note text="""
+You can push changes back to ikiwiki's git repository over the `git://`
+transport, to update this wiki, if you'd like, instead of editing it on the
+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 repository where he can see your branches and
+think about merging them. This is recommended. :-)

+## branches
+
+In order to refer to a branch in one of the above git repositories, for
+example when submitting a [[patch]], you can use the
+[[templates/gitbranch]] template.
+
+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.
+* `wikiwyg` adds [[todo/wikiwyg]] support. It is unmerged pending some
+  changes.
+* `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. (These and similar branches will be rebased.)
+* `ignore` gets various branches merged to it that Joey wishes to ignore
+  when looking at everyone's unmerged changes.
+* `pristine-tar` contains deltas that
+  [pristine-tar](http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/pristine-tar)
+  can use to recreate released tarballs of ikiwiki
