+A post-commit hook is run every time you commit a change to your subversion repository. To make the wiki be updated each time a commit is made, it can be run from (or as) a post-commit hook.

The best way to run ikiwiki in a [[Subversion]] post-commit hook is using
-a wrapper, which can be generated using `ikiwiki --gen-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 "--gen-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 --gen-wrapper
+ ~/wiki-checkout> ikiwiki . ~/public_html/wiki --wrapper

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

Now, put the wrapper somewhere convenient, and create a post-commit hook
script in your subversion repository for the wiki. All the post-commit

Depending on your Subversion setup, the post-commit hook might end up
getting called by users who have write access to subversion, but not to
