Looking for a good wiki based off of a git repo

Currently I have random docs/how-tos for my network stored in a forgejo repo, just a bunch of READMEs. I’d like to somehow make that a bit more official, I like writing it in markdown/git and having source control, but was wondering if anyone has a good wiki tool they like that can consume that and make it more hostable? Thanks!

Forgejo has a built in wiki capability.

I just use that, with configs in the repo.

Interesting, had no idea!

Also, if you do it right, I’m pretty sure you can cross-link your git repo’s markdown files without using the built in wiki.

This makes it a lot more portable if you want to update the wiki in your favorite text editor.

I’ve had this in my homelab for months and had no idea. Thanks.

Otterwiki is great for that.

This looks great! Thank you for the recommendation!

I use mycorrhiza.wiki. It is really lightweight and stores data in a git repo. So it is terribly easy to export and backup it. the only drawback is that it uses its own markdown dialect
