Not by default.

Great. I did a VCS agnostic plugin a few month ago as a proof of
concept, it works simply by acting (action plugin) when it gets the page
changes or media uploads events. I stopped my hack when I was able to
commit to the vcs and haven't investigated the replacement of
DokuWiki's default diff viewing: history, diff, logs are of course in
the vcs too, so they should/could be read from there. Another issue is
honouring ACLs, I haven't worked on that.

I'll clone your work and will try to contribute on my very little
spare time :-) I strongly encourage you to keep on with this work.
Making the storage vcs agnostic would be a must.

That's definitely wrong. DB storage is probably weird as DokuWiki is
built for flat file storage, but a plugin is always welcome. Of course
a vcs storage backend is a different beast and much more sexy ;-)
