Is it Possible to Save To Local Repo Instead of Remote ?

[goldcoders]

The Way Netlify CMS work on live site, is it make push to the remote repo...
Its Ok but If The Build Time of the Repository is 1 min... Its Kinda Slow
To Deploy Site and See changes and wait for 1 min...

I have another built a wrapper on hugo site using netlify-cms and netlify-cms-proxy...
Which allows you to use cms easily updating locally...

Its cool, but I needed it to make a git commit every save to the local repo instead of not doing anything at all..

Is there a way to highjack that with netlify-cms-proxy
I would like to Save to A Local Git Repo...
when saving a Collection or file
Instead of doing nothing...

But then Add an extra Button Of Livesync or do a git push

I wanna utilize as much as possible little or to none a third party integration of doing it , or by creating another wrapper like
electron or tauri on top of this just to be able to make native command calls to git and netlify....

Any help would be appreciated thanks

Hi @goldcoders, you can run the local proxy server in git mode:
https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/blob/277a1519bed31145910a67e22e0f51c46e8e2006/packages/netlify-cms-proxy-server/src/index.ts#L21

MODE=git npx netlify-cms-proxy-server

It's still very experimental (and needs a repo with no pending changes), but it will generate a local commit on each save.

Another options is to set up a separate watchman on the repo files, and act on that.
