What's New
* New SSH + Git implementation - We're now using go-git instead of libgit2 + libssh. Golang is far easier to cross compile and work with in comparison to libgit2.
* go-git is only used for git + ssh. For everything else - we're using our own implementation in Dart. No this wasn't a great use of my time, and I probably shouldn't have gone down this path.
About GitJournal - Notes with Git Android App
Git Journal is a note taking / journaling app built with privacy and data portability in mind. It stores all its notes in a standardised Markdown + YAML header format or plaintext. The notes are stored in a hosted Git Repo of your choice - GitHub / GitLab / Gitea / Gogs / Any Custom-provider.

Never need to import / export your notes, as you always have control of the data. Apps may come and go, but your notes will always be with you.
The app comes with a clean, easy to use interface designed to focus on just writing your journal entries without any distractions.
We have chosen Git as a backend as self-hosting a Git server is much simpler than almost any other software, additionally there are already many commercial providers of Git. So you can choose who you want to trust with your notes. We currently don't support encrypting the notes, but it's something we're actively working on.
