• Control: You can turn off these permissions in your device settings at any time.

FAQ

Q: Which authentication methods does GitSync support and when would I choose each?

A: GitSync offers HTTP/S credentials, SSH key pairs, OAuth for hosted services, and native GitHub, Gitea, or GitLab integrations. HTTP/S is simple for quick setups, SSH provides stronger security for advanced users, OAuth prevents you from storing passwords on your device, and specialized integrations streamline token management with those platforms.

Q: How do I configure automatic syncing and what are my scheduling options?

A: In your repository settings you can enable automatic sync on app open or close, set a fixed interval for scheduled syncs, or bind a quick-access tile in your Android tray. Once activated, GitSync will quietly pull or push changes according to your preferences without further prompts.

Q: Can I trigger a manual sync on demand?

A: Yes. You can initiate a manual sync through the app’s main interface, by tapping the quick tile you’ve added to your notification shade, or by sending a custom Android intent if you prefer to script or automate sync commands from third-party apps.
