Wiki Repo links ?

Relative links can cross-link between GitHub wikis and repo on GitHub itself.
However, when cloned, the wiki and the repo are different git archives. If care is taken the relative cross-links will work. I have made the wiki a submodule of the repo, so that if the repo is cloned recursively the links should still worl=k.
The wiki links will nearly always work, whether on GitHub itself or in a clone, but the links from wiki to repo (and back again) may not always work if cloned without taking the nesting into account.
It can be convenient, in a clone, to or have links that are relative to the clone, as well as absolute links to the original GitHub stuff online. this is one of the things I've tried to do in the _Sidebar.
