I work faster than most of my coworkers but I haven't told anyone about it to avoid drawing any attention. I do some work on the weekends also and have those commits pile up. If anyone knows I work fast, they'll just give me more work to do which I don't want.

I make atomic commits and I test locally to make sure none of them actually break a build. I usually have at least 40-50 ready commits but I intentionally don't push them, especially if I've already pushed a few for the day. Before I push, I make sure to do an interactive rebase and reword the commit so fires my post-rewrite hook that changes the author date so it appears like something I worked on recently.

The extra work done on the weekend pays off because I get to take a week off and just spend a few minutes to push a few commits from my queue and make it look like I'm working, but now I'm looking to do the actual pushing from my phone so I can go on a vacation without carrying my laptop around.

I already have SSH access to my home network but I want something on my phone as an app so I can select n number of pending commits and queue them to be pushed. I don't want to deal with the CLI on a tiny phone screen since I'll be high on acid.

Does anything like this exist already or will I have to develop something on my own?

Just SSH in with termux and have a script you can run to push n commits. You should probably still have a laptop around in case anything breaks and needs to be fixed.

You can create a cron job or custom timer script to push your commits at specified times
You could use Tasker or something to create a GUI that sends SSH commands through Termux
But you could have thought of that by yourself, this is just a ragebait post trying to trigger wagies, and I doubt you are a programmer at all let alone capable of writing a cron job
