I created a fork and added a feature to share and collaborate on trees using server: https://github.com/tarombo/Tarombo-app

Does your fork keep all info in the GEDCOM export?

The original app strips email and phone entries for the GEDCOM.

Amazing!
Collaborative working on a tree is exactly a feature missing from Family Gem.

But I don't understand why the login inside Tarombo is with the GitHub account.
Shared trees are uploaded to my GitHub?

I tried on Tarombo and it strips e-mail and phone too, like Family Gem.
The cause of this is how the gedcom5-java library manages the export of a GEDCOM file.
Family Gem/Tarombo relies on this library to import/export GEDCOM files.

That part is not changed, so it behaves like the original app.
Do you have a suggestion?

It is because it uses GitHub to store the tree, to avoid separate server management and costs.
Yes it is using GitHub's login and trees are stored in your GitHub.
