I believe that this might be the easiest way to backup IOS with only Obsidian Git plugin.
 You don’t need to download any extra app on your devices.

• Sync repo

  • Use https: protocol to clone the git repo
  • Compress your repo and send it to your iphone (Air Drop or other ways)
  • Open Obsidian on iphone, and create a vault with the same name as your repo, e.g. repoA
  • Uncompress your repo on iphone and copy the whole folder, e.g. repoA
  • Go to the path on my iphone -> Obsidian, you will see that the repoA is here. Now, paste your repo here, and choose Replace to all

• Config Git Auth

  • Install and Enable the Obsidian Git plugin
  • Go to github (I recommend you to use Personal access tokens, since the Password will fail sometimes)
  • Setting -> Developersetting -> Tokens (classic) -> generate new token
  • Please copy and store your token somewhere, cause it only shows once.
  • Paste your Personal access tokens to the Obsidian Git Setting-> Commit Author -> password/personal access tokens
  • Or put it in the Gitconfig directly

• Done, enjoy your free sync with git
