I have a relative path set up for my jrnl: "this": "./notes.txt"

which I've aliased: note=jrnl this

if I'm doing something that I get pulled away from it's a quick "note was working on the flux capacitor in somefile" .gitignore the notes file as desired

Can you share more about how you set up relative paths? Is that a bash alias?

Sorry I completely missed that bit! The relative path part is set up in your jrnl config usually ~/.jrnl_config
