Questions tagged [tiddlywiki]

TiddlyWiki is a complete wiki application in a single HTML file, which includes user content. TiddlyWiki favors portability over collaborative editing (but implementations vary).

TiddlyWiki is a complete wiki in a single HTML file. It contains the entire informational content, and all the JavaScript, CSS and HTML code to let you view, edit and search it -- without needing a server (though there are ServerSide implementations). It works well as a personal information manager stored on portable media such as a flash drive.

TiddlyWiki is published under a BSD Open Source License. TiddlyWiki 5 is a complete rewrite in progress. The functional goals are the same, but it is not yet fully released and must not be confused with TiddlyWiki "Classic".

Questions about usage (instead of programming and development) should be posted at at Web Apps StackExchange.

How do you keep a personal wiki (TiddlyWiki) current and in sync in multiple locations?

If one were to use TiddlyWiki as a personal database for notes and code snippets, how would you go about keeping it in sync between multiple machines. Would a svn/cvs etc work. How would you handle merges?
