Awesome. I started to use Obsidian right now, both in Android and Windows versions, and I was able to sync all my .md files using Git Sync, so now I can seamlessly integrate all my notes in my laptop and smartphone at the same GitHub repository.

Hey, just wanted to say thanks! 🙌 I've been messing around with Termux for the last three hours, trying to get Git working with SSH keys and setting up a cron job to sync my Obsidian repo between my Mac and Android. What you've built is simply perfect. 👌 Thank you again.

Doesn't support private email address setting for commits in GitHub. The initial clone is buggy and hangs, but after some fiddling, it eventually worked (hence the 2 stars instead of one). Free tier only supports 1 repo, and the premium tier is cost prohibitive. There's a weird setting asking for all access perms with little to no explanation (hard no). All of these make it a dealbreaker. Uninstalling and looking for another solution.

Wants permission to access ALL files on personal device, not just authorized git folders. Huge security risk

Trash. Can't create repos, so I use termux instead which just auto does everything else. Plus it reminds me there's no repo like once a minute. Trash.

I am getting an error when I try to clone a repo. The error is : error reading from the zlib stream; class=Zlib (5)
