Show HN: Quay – Menu-bar Git sync

I write Astro blog posts in a text editor; when I'm done I want them pushed to GitHub so Cloudflare deploys the site. To make it comfortable, I built Quay for the menu bar. Also useful for Obsidian vault syncing.

Point it at a folder, connect a GitHub repo, and it stages/commits/pushes/pulls. Multiple repos, editable commit messages, branch switching, merges with conflict detection. Shows open issue and PR counts per repo. But it's is not a full Git client (no diffs, blame, cherry-pick, or rebase) and it doesn't create remote repos.

Native macOS app (Swift/SwiftUI). Wraps the local git binary (prompts to install Xcode Command Line Tools if missing). No custom Git implementation. Sandboxed, no telemetry, GitHub-only.

macOS. 7-day trial, €9 one-time on the App Store.
