Just in case you don't already know this: the wiki is just another Git repo that can be cloned (and even pushed to).

I didn't know that. That's cool.

It's pretty annoying personally IMO. You should be able to point the Wiki tab to a folder in the main repo instead of having to maintain two different repos.

I see; I suppose not being able to make a single commit that updates the wiki and codebase at the same time is a bit annoying. I'm just pleased it's Git at all!

And it would be nice to have the branch/PR workflows for them. Better to just use a docs/ or wiki/ folder since markdown files are rendered.
