If you don't want to build it yourself, you could just use Instiki:

And even if you do want to build it yourself, the source is a good resource to answer your questions:

I've got a wiki site which uses vestal_versions for versioning and this cool javascript diff for highlighting changes, similar to stack overflow. It works fine and was really simple to set up. By escaping html tags before diff'ing you can output changes to html tags and also display inserted javascript.
