I have a private repo that's part of an organization on GitHub. I don't see the normal link to the repo's wiki that I've seen on many other repos. How do I get to it?
Wikis are available in public repositories with GitHub Free and GitHub Free for organizations, and in public and private repositories with GitHub Pro, GitHub Team, GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Enterprise Server.
GitHub, Inc., is an Internet hosting service for software development and version control using Git. It provides the distributed version control of Git plus access control, bug tracking, software feature requests, task management, continuous integration, and wikis for every project.
To find wiki pages from a specific repository, use the repo qualifier. user:defunkt matches wiki pages from repositories owned by @defunkt. org:github matches wikis in repositories owned by the GitHub organization. repo:defunkt/gibberish matches wiki pages from @defunkt's "gibberish" repository.
The Wiki pages are managed as a repository. So click on your repository, then on the left side click on Wiki. Finally on the upper right corner click on Clone Repository. There you will clear instructions on how to clone it correctly.
I did a little more digging and figured this out, decided I’d document it for the next person. The GitHub wiki is a setting that’s off by default. From the repo page select Settings on the right side, then in the Features section check Wikis.
