The git repository is for backup purposes. So if you connect your GitHub account, files you create in Wiki.js will be synced with your GitHub repo. Changes you make on GitHub will also be reflected in your Wiki.

Is this 100% needed though? Does it have to be connected to github if you don't want it to be? I don't have a private repo account.

NGPixel commented 6 years ago

@MostHated This is optional, as stated in the docs. However, both VSTS and GitLab offers free unlimited private repositories...

I must have missed it. I got to the point where it said: "Git 2.7.4 or later is required." Thank you though.

@MostHated It is required. You're mixing up Git and GitHub.
