Proposal to improve the OSMTracker tool for uploading traces to GitHub repositories

[JeanMarcoRU]

OSMTracker is a mature software in terms of development, so it is in the maintenance stage, requiring constant updates and improvements in new tools.
Communities use OSMTracker in their thematic mappings, and new needs arise that must be addressed with improvements to existing functionality or the implementation of new features. In the tool's Github repository users often share their needs for new functionalities, in 2017 two needs were raised [link]: one, to implement a functionality to download and install custom button layouts in a simpler way and the other, to upload traces to a shared folder and not only to OSM. The first of these functionalities was implemented and incorporated into the tool in version 0.7.2. The need to upload traces to a shared folder or repository and not only OSM is still pending to be implemented.

My proposal is to have the possibility to link the GitHub account in OSMtracker to have a NEW FUNCTION to upload GPX traces to an own repository, including the options to create a new repository, create a Fork of an existing repository and create a Pull Request. For this proposal I made the following prototype in Figma [link], currently this prototype only has a Spanish version, but the implementation in OSMtracker will be in English and with support in other languages over time.
