I do wish there were offerings using git as the backend since a full versioned can be backed up and mirrored to so many hosts so easily (GitHub, gitlab, etc). I simply don't trust non emphemeral data (journal, blog drafts, etc) exclusively to Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.
Personally I use pass for notes and journals but the UX isn't great outside of my laptop.
It's a dumb golang app that monitors changes, commits, and push.

Isn’t this a bit too fine grained? I’m working on storing notes with git as well, but I haven’t figured out a good “user experience” of when to commit. I think it’s because with Google Docs and most tools, I’m not used to batch saving edits.
I was trying to make it detect file change instead... But it seems the notification mechanism isn't reliable across different types of OS.
