Git is terrible at managing documentation, it was designed for her bazaar-style software projects like the Linux kernel, which is very much a completely different use case.
Now you can mostly use any technology to do anything du maybe this software is great but I wouldn't mention git as more than an implementation detail personally.
- preya2k 4y agoI totally disagree. Git is a great way to store documentation. Also „Git“ and „Wiki“ are not opposites. You can have a wiki AND store content in git at the same time.
- anonyme-honteux 4y agoGreat in which sense? I would argue that git is easy because you are already familiar with it, but it doesn't make shared documentation simple. How could he do that? Do you think that Linus Torvalds had a use case similar to Wikipedia in mind when he designed git? Sure you could build Wikipedia on top of git, it would just be shitload of unnecessary suffering compared to the hipster technology called PHP+MySQL.
