The Git2Pages extension implements a parser tag so you can transclude snippets of files in a git repository into wiki pages.
To do so it executes git
commands to clone a repository locally and then reads files from disk.
Usage
edit{{#snippet:repository=MYREPO|filename=MYFILE|branch=MYBRANCH
|startline=STARTLINE|endline=ENDLINE}}
The parameters are:
repository
- The URL of the git repository. REQUIREDfilename
- The filename whose data is going to be displayed. REQUIREDbranch
- The branch to look for the file. OPTIONAL (Default = master)startline
- The start of where the snippet will be pulled. OPTIONAL (Default = Start of file)endline
- The end of where the snippet will be pulled. OPTIONAL (Default = End of file)

to run shell commands that probably require the bash shell.
