I have a problem when I edit my wiki with a text editor and use just git to commit. 

Suppose `iki` is my scrdir and `iki.git` my repository. Then I did `git clone iki.git myiki` to get a copy. Then I do 

    cd myiki 
    echo "test" >> somepage.mdwm"
    git add somepage.mdwm
    git pull 
    git commit -m "test"
    git push

Then I get the following error message

    Counting objects: 5, done.        
    Delta compression using up to 2 threads.
    Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done.
    Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 287 bytes, done.

       32bb6be..1f3a647  master -> master

When I check the repository via gitk I see that everything seems to be ok, if I check the scrdir the same way origin master is one step away from master and the change doesn't appear on the iki web page. Then I tried to do a `sudo git pull --prune origin master` in my scrdir which sets master to the head, but the change isn't there anyway. It foremost appears when I do a second change as above or if I do `sudo ikiwiki --setup iki.setup`.

By the way the setup gives me a similar error message:

    successfully generated /var/www/iki/ikiwiki.cgi  
    successfully generated /home/myuser/iki.git/hooks/post-update
    There are no candidates for merging among the refs that you just fetched.

    matches on the remote end.

Any ideas what may be wrong here and how to fix this?
