GitSync.md brings real Git to your iPhone. Clone any GitHub repository, pull the latest changes, edit your notes and markdown files, then commit and push — all without a terminal. Real Git, Not a Workaround GitSync.md uses libgit2 to perform actual Git operations on your device. Your repos have a real .git directory. Commit history, branches, diffs — it's all there. No proprietary sync layer, no lock-in. Works With Your Favorite Editor Cloned repositories appear directly in the iOS Files app. Open them in Obsidian, iA Writer, 1Writer, Taio, or any app that supports the Files provider. Edit however you like, then come back to GitSync.md to commit and push. GitHub Native Sign in with GitHub OAuth or paste a Personal Access Token. Browse your repositories and clone with one tap. Author name, email, and branch are configured per-repo. Full Git Workflow • Clone any GitHub repository to your iPhone • Pull to fetch the latest remote changes • Stage all changes, write a commit message, and push • See uncommitted change counts at a glance • View branch, commit SHA, and last sync time per repo Obsidian Integration GitSync.md supports x-callback-url so other apps can trigger Git operations programmatically. Tap a syncmd://x-callback-url/sync link in any note, or run it from an iOS Shortcut, to pull and push without leaving Obsidian. Multiple Repositories Manage as many repos as you need. Each one gets its own branch, author, and storage location. Clone your blog, your Zettelkasten, your dotfiles — all in one app. Your Data Stays Yours Your files and Git credentials stay on your device and communicate directly with your Git provider. If you separately enable Push Sync, its relay stores repository names, verified GitHub App installation/account identifiers, and APNs registration data to route alerts. It never receives local file contents, paths, or Git credentials. Terms of Use (EULA): https://gitsyncmd.app/terms
