Commit: git commit -m 'Commit from mobile'.

Add all files into the commit: git add.

Set e-mail address: git config user.email Add files, commit and push.

Set username: git config user.name ForceBruMobile.

First-time setup - tell git who you are:.

Run git status to confirm that there are modified files.

Change directory to obsidian in your home directory: cd ~/obsidian.

Tap the “Sort” button (the rightmost one, with up/down arrows).

Currently (Obsidian 1.0.3) it’s empty (looks like a bug).

Restart Obsidian (might not be necessary).

(Optional) Run ls -a to see whether your files are there.

this is what allows you to clone the repo into the current folder.

Change directory to obsidian: cd obsidian.

Clone your git repository into obsidian.

Choose the folder with your local vault.

Mount your local vault folder into the obsidian folder.

Create a directory called obsidian in your home directory by running cd ~ & mkdir obsidian.

Create a new empty local vault in Obsidian.

You can also create the repo right from iSH - the git command you’ll be using is the exact same fully-featured git from Alpine Linux. This can be easily circumvented by sorting the notesĪlso see the example repository I created to showcase this method.Īssuming you have an existing repo on GitHub.

There appears to be a bug in Obsidian 1.0.3 that doesn’t show new files in the file explorer after you pull them from GitHub.

It requires using the Linux command-line.

It lets you use fully-featured git - the same git that runs on Alpine Linux.

I propose to use iSH to sync Obsidian with git. However, the ability to push is paid, and it costs a lot, but without this there can be no sync!

There’s already a post about syncing with WorkingCopy ( Setting up iOS git-based syncing with mobile app (using Working Copy)).

Why are git gui tools frowned upon
