  • Joplin ā€“ open-source note-taking and to-do application with sync

    For those that want to crosslink anything and everything I suggest Logseq[1]. Its journal and graph view are fantastic. And it has many iseful plugins. I use it along with git-sync [2] and syncthing [3] now I can sync the notes across my work, personal desktops and my mobile.

  • [Guide] Obsidian Git Sync on app opening Android
    5 projects | /r/ObsidianMD | 12 Feb 2023
    Iā€™m using almost the same approach to automatically sync my vault between my devices (Git, Termux, Tasker). The main difference is, that I'm using the great git-sync script by Simon Thum for syncing. In the past I had some problems with a simple script that included only git pull, commit and push. With the git-sync script I now have less problems. Nevertheless you can't avoid to have conflicts if you or plugins edit the same files at the same time. I have documented my setup in this GitHub repository.
  • NOOB Question: Are my settings being backed up to iCloud? Does anything exist like dotfiles? Brand new to macos. Go easy.

    Before I came to macos I was using stow to keep all my dotfiles in one place. Then they were being copied nightly to a private github repo with git-sync which, as you know, is nice for versioning. I also had the central dotfile folder in a syncthing folder, so all my configs were always the same on any machine I used. If I update anything on one computer, it's changed on the other automatically. I also have a VPS that's participating, and somewhat acting as an always-on central sync server to keep everything recent.
  • Any notes app that syncs?
    1 project | /r/fossdroid | 15 Jun 2022
    I use vim and git with git-sync addon (I think it's this one: https://github.com/simonthum/git-sync). I don't care too much about mobile, but I also have configured vim via Termux on my Android phone.
  • Dotfile manager like git
    2 projects | /r/linuxquestions | 27 Nov 2021
    I use git bare, it works great: syncs only the files I explicitly add, allows to place git repos as children of $HOME, and I get to sync changes with a single command: you can use an alias to rebase, commit and push or something like git-sync.
  • Is it possible to make a script that calls to a private github repo to update files on my system?
    2 projects | /r/git | 15 Sep 2021
    This is not enough if you want to update from multiple machines. Again u/blevlabs I really suggest you use something like https://github.com/simonthum/git-sync to do this, as it gracefully handles a lot of the corner cases that you might want to implement with something like this.
