If so, that would be to $git/contrib/mw-to-git/t/.
I'm not sur what's best, depending on the future of the tool:

If, once Git-MediaWiki is robust, well-tested, ... and enough people are interested, it may make sense to move Git-MediaWiki out of the contrib/ directory, and integrate it as an official command (like git-svn for example). That would make the installation process seamless ("make install" would install git-remote-mediawiki like other commands, "make doc" would generate the doc, and so on), which would be nice for the user.

My feeling is that we're still quite far from this. Although we're in the process of having a well-tested program, and that new features are going to come soon, there is still little interest of the community for it (at least, uncomparable to the one of git-svn for example).

So, I'd say that we should stick to something non-intrusive, within contrib/, and if more people show interest in the tool and if it becomes mature enough, we can start trying to push it out of contrib/.

What do other people think?
