Mirroring a Tweet from a long gone past. The mediawiki plugin can only pull 500 revisions at a time, oldest first, hence the loop.
$ sudo apt-get install git-mediawiki
$ git clone -c remote.origin.pages='Example' mediawiki::https://de.wikipedia.org/w/ ./Example
$ cd Example
$ while [[ "$o" != $(git rev-parse HEAD) ]]; do o="$(git rev-parse HEAD)"; git pull; done
$ git blame Example.mw
rinetd-style circuit level gateway in systemd
This accepts port 465/tcp and forwards all connections to a service running somewhere else on 1194/tcp.
The socket unit accepts the connection on port 465:
# /etc/systemd/system/tcp465-to-tcp1194.socket
[Unit]
Description="openvpn 465/tcp to 1194/tcp (socket)"
[Socket]
ListenStream=465
[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target
systemd-socket-proxyd connects to the backend:
# /etc/systemd/system/tcp465-to-tcp1194.service
[Unit]
Description="openvpn 465/tcp to 1194/tcp (service)"
[Service]
ExecStart=/lib/systemd/systemd-socket-proxyd 10.12.13.14:1194
User=proxy
(Anyone old enough to remember that this was called a plug-gateway in the TIS Firewall Toolkit?)

Configure the path, relative to the repository root:
