This script aims at building a static blog above a git repo. This way, you can use git abilities to have full archives and backups of your blog. Many scripts aims at doing this, and this is just one more. I needed something more personal and fitted to my needs, so I came up with this code. It's not very beautiful, can mostly be optimized but it's working for me. It may not be fitted to your needs, but it's up to you to see it.

````
