Why this helps
Deep work often ends with a commit, but the time spent getting there is already forgotten.
- Use an existing work signal
- Reduce end-of-day logging effort
- Build a more complete time history
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Toggl to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Instruct Notis to create a Toggl time entry when a new commit is pushed and use the repository and commit context in the entry.
- 4Choose the GitHub commit trigger, select a reporting channel, and test with one real commit.
