I wonder if Git is the best SCM for a Wiki, as you want per-file
revisions in a Wiki: when reverting a page to a previous version,
this should not modify other pages.

Sorry, I do not see why per-file revisioning is mandatory.
Wouldn't revert or edit of a single page be just a new commit of
the new whole tree with just a single path changed?

You are right.
Obviously I should get some sleep ;-)

As you said, by adding a new commit for every page revert, you get
a really messy history. If there is vandalism in a Wiki, wouldn't
it be better to be able to get rid of spam versions of one Wiki page?

In fact, wouldn't svnwiki already does the same thing?

Probably. I don't know it.
