You can automatically generate daily work logs from GitHub commits by mapping your commit history into workday windows and writing the summaries into an Obsidian daily log file. This process requires authenticated repo access to enumerate commits across all branches.

Yes, daily log generation covers private repositories by using GitHub authenticated access to pull all available repositories first. It then queries each branch for commits and filters them by your specific author email to prevent missing records.

Workday time windows are defined using Beijing time from 05:00 to the next day's 05:00. This time windowing rule ensures your late-night coding sessions are correctly attributed to the current or previous workday in the generated logs.

To update and push Obsidian daily summaries, the workflow safely syncs your local Obsidian repo to the latest remote state, atomically replaces the AUTO_DAILY_SUMMARY blocks in the daily files, and commits and pushes only those two target log files.

To start automating Chinese daily logs, you need GitHub authenticated access for reading private repositories, an Obsidian repository synced with Git, and your specific author email configured to accurately filter multi-branch commits for the daily summaries.

The automated sync replaces entire content blocks to ensure safe and atomic updates of the AUTO_DAILY_SUMMARY sections in your Obsidian files. This prevents partial overwrites and maintains file integrity while committing and pushing the two daily logs.
