MGit does not have a built-in text editor but has been tested to work well with the open source Viper Edit app (http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manichord.viperedit) but should also work well with other Android text editors that support Content Providers.

Please do not leave comments here if you have any problems, instead please create a new issue at: https://github.com/maks/MGit/issues/new/choose

MGit is a continuation of development of the popular SGit app.

Ratings and reviews

MGit does not notice the new files I create, which means I can't back up most of my work. This makes it a nonstarter for me. As a secondary issue, as I've tried to use it so far, it's been very slow. Adding and committing files takes several seconds in a small repo. I'm used to this being a sub-second operation on a computer, so it's puzzling. But the main issue is that I simply can't commit new files; it doesn't see them.

The most beautiful thing I've ever layed eyes on, the thing that pushed me to write this review is, when you want to edit a file, and click the edit button, IT OPENS YOUR IDE! That blew my mind it's seemless, it's elegant, it's exactly what I want.

Really good app and very fast. One of the few that doesn't require a github account to just pull. It still opens files like .csv in the internal editor. I thought it was supposed to go to external now? No biggie -- you can just click upper right of the editor to open external app.
