TL;DR

Prerequisites
Git repository
Create an empty remote Git repository.
Insomnia workspace
Create a workspace in Insomnia. A workspace can be a design document, a collection, a mock server, or an environment.
Connect to the repository
Select whether you want to clone the repository from GitHub, GitLab, or Git.
Create a new branch
Insomnia synchronizes with the repository’s default branch, but it’s a good practice to make changes on a different branch.
- Click the name of the branch at the bottom of the left pane to see the Git sync menu.
- Click Branches.
- Enter a name for the new branch and click Create.
Commit and push the content to your repository
- Click the name of the branch.
- Click Commit.
- Enter a commit message.
- Select the content that you want to commit to the repository.
- Click Commit, then click Close once the changes are committed.
- Click the name of the branch and click Push.
You can see in your repository that Insomnia added a .insomnia directory with your content in it.
