I want to be able to write code in an editor or IDE and push that to source control from the device.

  You can do that. As long as you're okay with VSCode or a very specific build Vim: https://docs.blink.sh/advanced/code https://docs.blink.sh/advanced/code Please don't move the goal post to "I also want to compile and run code" because I got nothing for that. I just ssh to my home server and use my normal shell and neovim there.

    A lot of extensions don’t work well with that. Like the UI is all messed up.

    i don’t find the code-server experience particularly good. this “functionality” in blink is basically just safari also no local git

      What do you mean, no local git? There is local git...it's just another app. I know it sucks. Also pretty sure code-server has working git functionality? I don't find that experience good either, but I mostly write rust, so not having rust tool chain and its component is a dealbreaker for me. I'm just saying you can write code and commit from iPad directly. I'd rather get the ability to use jetbrains IDEs via their remote client, but I don't think it will ever happen.
