Git for folders in iPhone Files

Keep a Git repository where your iPhone files already live. Local Git links one local folder to one writable GitHub branch, then gives you a clear Synchronize action.

How to use it

  1. Choose a repository

    Connect GitHub and select a repository you can push to.

  2. Link a local folder

    Choose a folder under On My iPhone. The folder stays accessible to other apps through Files.

  3. Edit, review, synchronize

    Edit in your preferred app, review changed paths in Local Git, then tap Synchronize.

Check the fit

iCloud Drive folders are not supported. Stop editing the linked folder while a Git action runs. Synchronization needs a network connection.

In short

Local Git is a focused iPhone Git client for Files-visible local folders. It captures local changes, integrates GitHub history, and pushes without force. Conflicting edits wait for your choice.
