Embedding images inside a GitHub wiki (gollum) repository?

Question

The Github wikis are backed by a separate git repository then the main project repository.

This post by the Github team makes it sound like you should be able to link to

Answer 1

Here is a practical way to do it:

• Go to any issue on github
• In the comment section you can attach files, just drag/drop, select or paste your image
• Copy the code/link displayed in the textarea
• Paste it in the wiki
• Profit !

You don't even have to create or modify any issue compared to @tiby solution !
