The trac wiki is just a wiki, you edit it through the normal website
interface, there's no git repo or other source control system which
generates the trac pages (that I know of).

You need to have a trac account which has wiki edit privileges to do
this (I believe the WIKI_MODIFY permission is the one).  I believe any
authenticated user is able to create and edit tickets, but there appears
to be a separate permission for wiki modifications.

If you don't have a trac account, I can create one for you.  If you want
me to do this, send me an off-list email with the username, email
address, and real name you'd like to be associated with your trac
account.  I'll send you back a temporary password that you can then
login with and change.

Thanks,
Andrew
