weelll... not really. ok, actually, it is :) the python-dulwich wiki code that i wrote has *direct* access to the git repository. i _know_ that it's possible for that code to destroy / corrupt git repositories :) so it will be absolutely absolutely necessary to write some thoroughly comprehensive tests before letting it loose. for example, doing parallel multiple commits (hundreds, thousands of) on the same file structure, to make sure that file locking is working, and that multiple commits that occur do so in an atomic fashion. as long as the commits are atomic, it _should_ be ok, but there's no concept of "merge" in dulwich. so it is probably safest to have a separately-checked out repository that uses push and pull between the dulwich-facing git repo and the standard one on pyjs.org. > It's probably good to use one and > the same tool for Wiki and Tracker. yes. the basis is pyjamasgitwiki for now.
