Introducing Post Forking for WordPress
- sigil 14y agoWhy reinvent version control inside of WordPress? I'd rather version my content in git and build a static site from that. I think there's a real opportunity for github, or a github app, to revolutionize publishing by building on the existing content collaboration capabilities of git. I'm not the first to have this idea [1]; there are already people executing on it [2].

- krogsgard 14y agoBecause WordPress is a really mature platform for publishing that is vastly simpler than just about anything else out there, especially considering the power it wields. This is a really great enhancement to the platform and I'm excited to use it. Before, it was pretty difficult to collaborate on posts, especially after the initial publish date.
- andrewkkirk 14y agoWhile technically interesting, I don't think this feature has much benefit. I don't see people creating wiki sites using Wordpress.
- malandrew 14y agoI'm surprised that blogging software still hasn't gotten the equivalent of "Suggest Edits" that Quora uses on answers. This would go a long way to making sure comments are comments on the content discussed and not issues of delivery like grammar, word choice and fact checking.
