ObGitSync keeps a folder of Markdown notes in step with a Git repository, straight from your iPhone — no desktop, no subscription, no server in the middle. It is built for people who already keep their notes in git and want the same control on mobile: not one opaque "sync" button, but real git, one step at a time.
