Question

I know that wiki is just another .git repo and that I can clone it, but we are looking for a way to fetch it without having git installed on our server. Is it accessible as a downloadable tarball via some url?

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

It is possible to fetch if you clone the wiki into the main repository, say in docs/ or wiki, using a subtree merge as explained here.

OTHER TIPS

Not that I know of.

I tried a:

wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/User/project.wiki/tarball/master
wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/User/project.wiki.git/tarball/master

Each time, I get a 404.

The Get Archive API doesn't seem to apply to a wiki repo.
