Description

# Forker

A Git client for Android. Forked from [SGit](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.sheimi.sgit). The only reason for this fork is because original seems to be abandoned.

## Notes

* All repositories are stored in `[sdcard dir]/Android/data/ch.phcoder.jigit/files/[repo name]`. If you want to delete this app, you can manually backup repositories from this location.
* The GitHub repo of this project is: [phcoder/SGit](https://github.com/phcoder/SGit).
* If you encounter any issues (bugs, crashes, etc.) and want to help improve this project, please open an issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/phcoder/SGit/issues/new) describing: what the issues are; and how they were caused, to allow for re-creation and fixing of bugs.
* This app is for Android v4.x and later. 4.4 or later or recommended, earlier versions work with reduced functionality and possibly more bugs.

## Quick start

### Clone a remote repository

1. Click on the *+* icon to add a new repository.
2. Enter remote URL (see URL format below).
3. Enter local repository name - note that this is not a path since JiGit stores all repositories in the same directory on the mobile device.
4. Username - username to use to clone the remote repo.
5. Password - password to use to clone the remote repo.
6. Click the *Clone* button.
7. If all the credentials are correct, JiGit will download the repository (all branches) to your device.

### Create a local repository
1. Click on the *+* icon to add a new repository.
2. Click on *Init Local* to create a local repository.
3. Enter the name for this repository when prompted.

* SSH running on standard port (22): `ssh://username@server_name/path/to/repo`
* SSH running on non-standard port: `ssh://username@server_name:port/path/to/repo`
* `username` is needed - by default, Forker tries to connect as root.
