Can I use gollum to create a wiki which isn't hosted by Github?
gollum-wiki, ruby
Solution
Gollum will not sync with a git remote. It will never perform `git pull` or `git push`. You must have gollum running on the remote server, or you must manually run `git push` on machines where you make edits, and `git pull` on machines who also want to see the wiki. This could be part of a cron job if you're running locally.
It is much easier to have the gollum process running on your web server. See below for more information:

Problem
I want to create a wiki with gollum and push it to my own git repo, is that possible? I created a new git repo, install gollum and started it. I got the "edit/Home" page. I added some content, saved...all looked good. Even the "revision history" showed that revisions occurred. Then I stopped gollum and found there was nothing new in my git repo, I even checked if stuff hadn't been pushed...nothing. I'm not sure how/where it's storing the content that I add when I run it. Any ideas? Thanks
