wp2git

This program allows you to download and convert any Wikipedia article's history to a git repository, for easy browsing and blaming.

Quick installation

pip install https://github.com/dlenski/wp2git/archive/v1.0.1.zip

Usage

$ wp2git [--bare] article_name

wp2git will create a directory, in which a new git repository will be created. The repository will contain a single file named article_name.mw, along with its entire edit history.

Run wp2git --help for more options.

Requirements

git should be accessible from PATH. The mwclient package is required.

Entirely based on

CyberShadow's version written in the D language.
