-The best way to run ikiwiki in a [[Subversion]] post-commit hook is using
-a [[wrapper, which can be generated using `ikiwiki --wrapper`.
-
-First, set up the subversion checkout that ikiwiki will update and compile
-into your wiki at each subversion commit. Run ikiwiki a few times by hand
-to get a feel for it. Now, generate the wrapper by adding "--wrapper"
-to whatever command line you've been using to run ikiwiki. For example:
-
-       ~/wiki-checkout> ikiwiki . ~/public_html/wiki
-       ~/wiki-checkout> ikiwiki . ~/public_html/wiki --wrapper
-       successfully generated ikiwiki-wrap
+The best way to run ikiwiki in a post-commit hook is using a wrapper, which
+ikiwiki is usually configured to generate using a setup file.

 
 The generated wrapper is a C program that is designed to safely be made
 suid if necessary. It's hardcoded to run ikiwiki with the settings
 specified when you ran --wrapper, and can only be used to update and
 compile that one checkout into the specified html directory.
