git clone gitosis@fscons.org:web/puppet.git
Wiki installation
The wiki is installed under /srv/mediawiki.
The ConfirmEdit extension is enabled to protect from spam, with a modification:
- define( "RECAPTCHA_API_SERVER", "http://www.google.com/recaptcha/api" ); + define( "RECAPTCHA_API_SERVER", "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api" );
(because apparently the extension cannot guess correctly that we are using ssl when used with fastcgi...)
