Hm, I'm not really sure what the issue is. If you had went ahead and created a new page, then it would be easy to see whether Gitit was operating on a new/empty wiki - you would just look in wikidata/ and see whether your new file was there. So maybe try that if restarting the whole thing is too time-consuming. -- gwern _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
