How can I check out my Confluence contents and contribute like a git repo?

Question

Having worked this way with GitHub I expected to be able to do the same here and am having a hard time figuring out how to do this.

I want to be able to clone my Confluence contents like a git repository to my local machine and use local text editing to make changes to my documentation then push those changes back up via git.

Maybe a static site generator is the kind of experience you're looking for?

This is not possible for Confluence.

I recommend reporting this to the Confluence team as a suggestion, you can do that here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF.

I use Confluence a lot, and I'm familiar with Git, and I agree that this would be an awesome way to work with a wiki.
