You should not use Git as a database
(Gollum)[https://github.com/gollum/gollum] can do that but that's a wiki.

Gollum – A simple, Git-powered wiki with a sweet API and local frontend
Fun to see this on HN! I originally created Gollum to power GitHub's wiki system and wanted to see if we could use Git to make our wikis more powerful AND more open. I thought it would be cool if you could just clone your GitHub wiki and modify it locally or export it to some other system if you needed, or have it all locally for an airplane trip without wifi.
Another interesting thing is that I used my Readme Driven Development method to develop it, which you can see in the Readme of the first commit: https://github.com/gollum/gollum/commit/c7875704971be998a539.... I wrote it before writing a single line of code and found it worked nicely to figure out the API and feel out the ergonomics of the text format. More on that approach here: https://tom.preston-werner.com/2010/08/23/readme-driven-deve...
Glad to see the project alive and well!

Snippet Box - selfhosted and open source code snippet manager with built-in support for Markdown documentation
Instead of SQLite I would prefer if you stored the snippets in a git repo like Gollum or Gitit.

Does you guys use vim for planning/todos/journals?
I use Gollum for my note-taking and planning, and that lets me edit everything in Vim, use git for version control, and use any of a number of standard markup languages that have good Vim support.

Show HN: BookStack – An open source wiki platform and alternative to Confluence
Not sure if this fully fits your needs but you might want to look at Wiki.js. You can self host it, has WYSIWYG editor available. I'm not associated, just use it for some time.

My Personal Note Taking Journey
It could be worth looking at Wiki.js (https://js.wiki/). It's not perfect, but I started using a self hosted instance recently and it has worked out ok so far. With markdown and git sync it doesn't feel like I'm stuck if I want to move on to something else in the future, or if I want to do some automation/scripting with the contents.
- What's a good document manager that has reversion history?

Is it possible to create a website that uses MediaWiki and also can be hosted on a personal computer?
I don't mean to be nosy, but Mediawiki is a very good platform for megaprojects that need to scale to millions of users. For small homey wikis there are way simpler options. I was considering running a self hosted wiki at work for a bit, and did some research and this is what, IMHO, suited our profile better: https://js.wiki/

Is there an open source and deployable collaborative markdown editor with version control (maybe git?)
Wiki JS fits and works well for documentation repos and other knowledge base collections.
