git-secret is a bash tool which stores private data inside a git repo.
git-secret encrypts files with permitted users' public keys,
allowing users you trust to access encrypted data using pgp and their secret keys.
With git-secret, changes to access rights are simplified, and private-public key issues are handled for you.
When someone's permission is revoked, secrets do not need to be changed with git-secret -
just remove their key from the repo's keyring using git secret removeperson [email protected],
re-encrypt the files, and they won't be able to decrypt secrets anymore.
If you think the user might have copied the secrets or keys when they had access, then
you should also change the secrets.
Preview
Installation
git-secretsupports brew, just type: brew install git-secret
It also supports apt and yum. You can also use make if you want to.
See the installation section for the details.
Requirements
git-secret relies on several external packages:
bash since 3.2.57 (it is hard to tell the correct patch release)
gawk since 4.0.2
git since 1.8.3.1
gpg since gnupg 1.4 to gnupg 2.X
sha256sum since 8.21 (on freebsd and MacOS shasum is used instead)

Security
In order to encrypt (git-secret hide -m) files only when modified, the path
mappings file tracks sha256sum checksums of the files added (git-secret add) to
git-secret's path mappings filesystem database. Although, the chances of
encountering a sha collision are low, it is recommend that you pad files with
random data for greater security. Or avoid using the -m option altogether.
If your secret file holds more data than just a single password these
precautions should not be necessary, but could be followed for greater
security.
If you found any security related issues, please do not disclose it in public. Send an email to [email protected]
Such packages are considered 'downstream' because the git-secret code 'flows' from the git-secretrepository
to the various rpm/deb/dpkg/etc packages that are created for specific OSes and distributions.
We have also added notes specifically for packagers in CONTRIBUTING.md.
