[OH-Dev] Editing Open Hatch pages

[Asheesh Laroia]

Hi Maneesha!

First, let me say that I'm super excited that you're doing this.

There *is* a way to use "git-remote-mediawiki" to edit pages offline, and
then literally use "git push" to push your changes. See also:

* https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git-remote-mediawiki

* https://github.com/moy/Git-Mediawiki/wiki

*
https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/contrib/mw-to-git/git-remote-mediawiki.perl

Basically, if you set this up, I'd be happy to make sure your final "git
push" works fine with the OpenHatch wiki. It *should* "just work" so long
as you make sure that your user account has a password, which you can set
by:

* Using the "Forgot my password" flow, and then

* Setting a password that way.



​It might not be the best thing ever, but that's the best option I know.
Googling [edit mediawiki offline] might find other things, too.

I hope this helps!
