Welcome to the Test-GitHub-stuff wiki!

Repo to try out tests on GitHub stuff (and avoid corrupting working repos)

Like:

• Creating subdirectories in the wiki instead of the repo

  • using relative links to other files inside the wiki
    • basically, trying to make AsciiDoc more like a wiki and less like a document processing language
    • AsciiDoc linking is easier to internal labels and harder to external

• placing makefiles to generatte HTML, e.g. include expansion

and so on

Q: can I use subdirectories in a GitHub wiki?

A: it looks like I can, but...

• file-in-subdir --links-to--> subdir/file-in-subdir
• links with a subdir relative part fail
  • subdir/file-in-subdir
  • subdir/new-file-in-subdir i.e. it almost looks like the GitHub wiki walks the whole tree, as if with find

Q: what happens when the same filename is in both parent and child directories? Does one win?

Q: can I use subdir/ in other link formats, not link?
