mediawiki pages can have names longer than NAME_MAX (generally 255)
characters, which will fail on checkout. we simply strip out extra
characters, which may mean one page's content will overwrite another
(the last editing winning).
ideally, we would do a more clever system to find unique names, but
that would be more difficult and error prone for a situation that
should rarely happen in the first place.

sorry for the noise here, but the original patch didn't fix the length
in the right place. v2 fixed it in the library properly, but i forgot
to also include the length of the suffix. this should be good to go...

There's a request to allow a configurable extension (.mediawiki would
help importing in some wikis, see
https://github.com/Git-Mediawiki/Git-Mediawiki/issues/42). You should at
least make this stg like length(".mw") so that the next search&replace
for ".mw" finds this.
Also, note that your solution works for using Git-Mediawiki in a
read-only way, but if you start modifying and pushing such files, you'll
get into trouble. It probably makes sense to issue a warnign in such
case.
Regards,

I believe I did that in v3.

True. I didn't consider that, but then again the patch is not a
regression: you couldn't have pushed those repos in the first place
anyways...
