Objective is to migrate all content into static files, preserving author, and file changes history into a Git repository.

With that, we’ll be able to set in place conversion filter (e.g. convert Wikitext into minimal HTML and Markdown?) so we could use a static site generator to make the site as a static site.

Expected deliverables

It works and history makes sense!

Achievement unlocked.

  1. We have full history into Git MediaWiki history into Git repository
  2. We can review each commit, who did it, and when Preview of git show of a converted page edit into a commit
  3. A diff within two changes in MediaWiki has the same outcome as a diff made from exported history mediawiki-git-comparing-commits

Almost there!
