I love how more and more of us are using Git to store our notes, though in this case it's more coupled to GitHub than Git. If there is already a need to self-host this, then why not just hook into git and make this more generic?

In fact, why is a Postgres database even needed?

Please note that I'm biased. I work on [GitJournal](https://gitjournal.io) which is similar, but only mobile based.

I just pointed GitNoter at my GitJournal repo and it loaded fairly well :). I'll investigate fiddling with the settings (dates get dumped into GitNoter notes), would be nice to have them interoperate perfectly.

Thanks for GitJournal!

GitJournal is nice. Just wanted to check with whats your opinion about this - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31580996

Did you get the permission for using "Git" mark?

I didn't know it was required.

I'll shoot them an email and ask, and start thinking of a different name. In the case of Gitea [0], there doesn't seem to have been any response.

Thanks for bringing this up. Though I wonder how well can "Software Freedom Conservancy" claim "GitSomething" is not allowed when there are clearly so so many projects doing it. Eg - Gitolite / Gittea. Trademarks are only so good as long as they are enforced.
