## Description

obsidian-git is a version control integration for personal knowledge management that enables local file versioning and synchronization. It provides Git-based tracking for local files to allow for history auditing, document reversion, and the backup of notes to remote servers.

The project automates the version control process through scheduled background syncing, which triggers automatic commits and pushes at set intervals or during application startup. It facilitates collaborative editing by using branches and synchronization to manage contributions and merge changes.

The toolset covers comprehensive repository management, including initializing local repositories, managing file changes, and browsing commit history. It also includes a diff viewer to visualize additions, modifications, and deletions between different file versions.
