Versions: Improvement or Deprecation? #49

Open trans opened 12 years ago

trans commented 12 years ago

Version 0.6 supports the versions feature, but it's has some issues. It's really a bonus feature and not critical, so it can be fixed and improved over the next few 0.6.x releases.

However, I am not sure it is a feature that Smeagol really needs at all. When it comes to seeing an old version of a page, one should be able just to refer back to the actual Gollum wiki, which provides version exploration itself. Why provide it for the read-only site?

Do others have any opinions on this?

I agree it isn't necessary. This is a job for git or Gollum, Smeagol acting as a 'current copy' view/generator is a good and precise focus.
