<p>WhatyoumaybescreamingrightnowisWHY?I'll tell you why. Cgit is an excellent Git viewer, but that'sallitis.Agitviewer.Itdoesn't handle your repositories, no issue tracking, no pull requests, no users, nothing. This is fine when you'retheonlyoneworkingonaproject,asyou'regoingtodomostworklocallyonyourcomputeranyway,andthenpushusingGitfromthecommandline.</p>

<p>Now,whileI'm writing this blog post I also want to talk about some future changes. I want to slowly move from w2wiki to simply a static website that people can edit through issues and pull requests. In my opinion this is a lot better, not only for security but convenience and flexibility. W2wiki is pretty good, but it is definitely not designed with security in mind, and it isn'thardforanyonetosimplyremovetheentirethingwithminimaleffort,as<ahref="https://wiki.speedie.site">happenedtothespeedie.sitewiki</a>awhileago.</p>
