How can you create wiki pages in GitLab?

Creating wiki pages in GitLab can be accomplished through multiple methods, specifically both the web interface and Git. This versatility allows users to choose the approach that best suits their workflow and preferences.

When using the web interface, users can easily create and edit wiki pages directly in their browser. This is particularly advantageous for those who prefer a straightforward, graphical method of managing content without needing to interact with the command line or manage local Git repositories.

On the other hand, wikis in GitLab are also hosted as Git repositories. This means that you can clone the wiki repository to your local machine, make changes to the Markdown files that represent your wiki pages, and then push those changes back to GitLab. This method is ideal for users who are comfortable with Git and manage their content through version control, allowing for better collaboration, tracking of changes, and the use of Git features like branching and merging.

Thus, the ability to create wiki pages using both the web interface and Git enables users to select the method that aligns with their skills and the specific needs of their project. This functionality enhances flexibility and user engagement with documentation within GitLab.
