Gitit is a wiki built on \cref{Happstack} and backed by a git or darcs
filestore. Pages and uploaded files can be modified either directly
via the VCS's command-line tools or through the wiki's web interface.
\cref{Pandoc} is used for markup processing, so pages may be written in
(extended) markdown, reStructuredText, LaTeX, HTML, or literate Haskell,
and exported in ten different formats, including LaTeX, ConTeXt,
DocBook, RTF, OpenOffice ODT, and MediaWiki markup.
Notable features of gitit include
\begin{itemize}
\item
Plugins: users can write their own dynamically loaded page transformations,
which operate directly on the abstract syntax tree.
\item
Math support: LaTeX inline and display math is automatically converted
to MathML, using the \texttt{texmath} library.
\item
Highlighting: Any git or darcs repository can be made a gitit wiki.
Directories can be browsed, and source code files are
automatically syntax-highlighted. Code snippets in wiki pages
can also be highlighted.
\item
Library: Gitit now exports a library, \texttt{Network.Gitit}, that makes it
easy to include a gitit wiki (or wikis) in any \cref{Happstack} application.
\item
Literate Haskell: Pages can be written directly in literate Haskell.
\end{itemize}

a running demo of gitit: \text{\url{http://gitit.net}}.
