GitPhone — Commit from Your Phone 📱

Stage changes in VS Code. Commit from Telegram. Keep your GitHub streak alive.

GitPhone is a VS Code extension that bridges your local code with your phone. Save a file → it's instantly staged in the cloud → open Telegram and commit with a tap. No laptop needed.

How It Works

Save file in VS Code  →  Diff synced to cloud  →  Telegram /files  →  🚀 Committed!

1. Save any file in your open workspace
2. Status bar shows: ✅ GitPhone — 1 staged
3. Open Telegram → send /files to @GitPhoneBot
4. Tap the file → type commit message → tap 🚀 Commit Now
5. Real GitHub commit. Streak maintained. Done.

Features

• 📱 Telegram bot interface — commit from anywhere, any device
• 🔀 Diff-based sync — stores only changes, not full files (97% storage savings)
• ⚡ Conflict detection — warns if file changed on GitHub after staging
• 🔒 Your token, your data — GitHub PAT stored in your account only
• 📊 Status bar — always shows staged file count
• 🪟 Windows friendly — CRLF normalization built in
