Keep your notes in plain text files with vim, automatically synced to GitHub.

• Notes live in ~/n/ — a git repo connected to GitHub
• Every :w in vim auto-commits and pushes your changes
• Every time you open vim or a new shell, it pulls the latest changes
• Works from any machine

• vim
• git
• A GitHub repo to store your notes (can be private)

git clone https://github.com/your-username/gnotes
cd gnotes
make install

You'll be prompted for your GitHub notes repo URL. The script will clone it to ~/n/ and patch your .vimrc and shell config.

Restart your shell (or source ~/.zshrc / source ~/.bashrc) when done.

make uninstall

Removes the snippets from your .vimrc and shell config. Optionally deletes ~/n/.

Open any file in ~/n/ with vim and just write. Saving syncs automatically.
