  11# Gateway between Git and MediaWiki.
  12#   https://github.com/Bibzball/Git-Mediawiki/wiki
  13#
  14# Known limitations:
  15#
  16# - Several strategies are provided to fetch modifications from the
  17#   wiki, but no automatic heuristics is provided, the user has
  18#   to understand and chose which strategy is appropriate for him.
  19#
  20# - Git renames could be turned into MediaWiki renames (see TODO
  21#   below)
  22#
  23# - login/password support requires the user to write the password
  24#   cleartext in a file (see TODO below).
  25#
  26# - No way to import "one page, and all pages included in it"
  27#
  28# - Multiple remote MediaWikis have not been very well tested.
