💖 Support my projects
I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously,this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).
However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:
Starring and sharing the projects you like
🚀 —I love books! I will remember you after years if you buy me one.
😁 📖 —You can make one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a
coffeetea.🍵 —Set up a recurring monthly donation and you will get interesting news about what I'm doing (things that I don't share with everyone).
Bitcoin—You can send me bitcoins at this address (or scanning the code below):

Git is the modern standard for source code hosting. Large hosting platforms like GitHub and Atlassian's Bitbucket allow for easy creation of git repositories for storing apps and web source code for sharing amongst teams during the development process. But, what if you want to access the repositories, perform merges, and commit code while you're on iOS?
Fortunately, there are quite a few good apps that you can use on the iPhone and iPad to do this, and we'll take a look at one of the best: Working Copy.

I like Working Copy because it's a universal app that works on iPhone and iPad; it includes a built-in editor that lets you edit code; and it can handle many simple git tasks such as forking, merging, and reverting changes.
Working Copy is a paid app available on the App Store. It costs $14.99 USD to download.
Sign in with your git account or import keys
If you use GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, or GitBook, you can sign into your account to view available repositories. To do this inside of Working Copy, follow these steps.
- Open Working Copy.
- Tap Settings in the top left-hand corner and then tap Hosting Providers.
- Select your provider (Figure A).
- Enter your username and password

Now that you've signed in to your git hosting account, you'll need to either generate a new SSH key for your device or import an existing key. Follow the directions below for each of those tasks.
How to generate a new SSH key
- Open Working Copy.
- Select Settings | SSH Keys | + Button (Figure B).
- Select Generate Key.
Figure B
You'll be presented with a new SSH key that you can name to your liking. You can export the public or private keys via email, iMessage, or AirDrop so you can import those keys with your git hosting provider.
How to import an existing SSH key
- Open Working Copy.
- Select Settings | SSH Keys | + Button.
- Select either Import File (if the SSH key to import is stored in iCloud Drive or another location on your device) or Import From Clipboard (if you copied your SSH key to your iOS clipboard).
If you don't wish to add an SSH key and use HTTP or HTTPS clones instead, you can skip this step. When cloning the repository you'll be prompted to enter the username and password if cloning via HTTP/S.
How to clone repositories
To clone a repository to your local device, open Working Copy and navigate back to the app's main screen. Tap the + button to bring up the Clone Repository view (Figure C).
Figure C
To clone a new repository on the device, follow these steps.
- Enter the URL (HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH URLs are supported).
- Select Clone.
While in this view, you can also see all repositories available to clone from your signed in hosting account, such as Bitbucket and GitHub, from the list below the clone URL text entry.
If the SSH key created in the Working Copy app has already been associated with your git hosting service, the clone will start immediately. If you're using an HTTP/S clone, you'll be prompted to provide your username and password before continuing.
After tapping the Clone button, the repository will be cloned from the remote URL and added to Working Copy where you can edit the files inside of the app by tapping a file name. Once edited, the changes will appear and can be committed and pushed back to the remote repository.
