Termux Tools

Tools to automate common tasks on Android using Termux:

git-sync - syncs your Git repositories automatically

Prerequisites

Install the following packages from F-Droid:

Required:
- Termux
- Termux:API
- Termux:Boot
- Termux:Widget
Optional (but recommended):
- Termux:Styling

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Because we want Termux to run in the background all the time, we need to make sure Androids battery optimization is disabled for it.

Installation

Copy & Paste the following snippet into your Termux terminal and run it:

curl -sS -o termux-install.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marbetschar/termux/main/install.sh && \
    chmod +x termux-install.sh && \
    ./termux-install.sh && \
    rm -f termux-install.sh

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Restart Termux to complete the installation! Otherwise you might experience git-sync: command not found or similar errors
