To me, a git-based wiki is specifically a git repository that contains your wiki data / textfiles. Ideally it would be pure, the web or server code would be kept separate, possibly called/deployed on a git push hook. It would make far more sense to write and commit and push only plain content, no cluttering the repository with generated markup every time. This post is a great idea of leveraging github's own repo viewer & markdown handling. Plus they can always add their own web viewer/interface later if needed.
