On Android you could probably somehow do a local checkout, but don't think that will work with iOS due to file system restrictions.
- vcavallo 5y ago> Did you use some plugin that helped with the committing and pushing? No, it's just a folder of markdown files that I keep in version control and access through a variety of software, including (usually) Obsidian.
- vcavallo 5y agoI just found this: https://workingcopyapp.com/ https://workingcopyapp.com/
- eXpl0it3r 5y agoSounds like you're in luck with Working Copy, as they mention this as being the only (known) application supporting background-sync for specific directories. https://help.obsidian.md/Obsidian/iOS+app#Sync https://help.obsidian.md/Obsidian/iOS+app#Sync
- vcavallo 5y agoConfirming: Working Copy is _itself_ amazing, and solves the syncing-obsidian-to-github-on-ios problem.
- cywick 5y agoThat sounds very intriguing. How does syncing work in practice, though? Do you have to remember to manually trigger commits/syncing or can you set it to commit/sync automatically (e.g., after a short period of inactivity)?
- vcavallo 5y agoI haven't looked into any automation options, but I doubt it. Seems like Working Copy takes a specified folder in the "Files" app and treats it as a git repo (in this case, the Obsidian/YourVaultHere folder). When you launch Working Copy you're basically sitting at a (very nice) git UI, so all the standard git workflows are present. I'm used to using a variety of editing software and then manually pushing my notes repo, so the lack of automatic syncing doesn't bother me. In fact, I prefer it. I've been burned by auto-syncing before and it makes me nervous.
