Description

A Git extension for transparently encrypting selected files in a repository. It lets teams keep sensitive files encrypted at rest in Git while authorized users can decrypt them with configured keys.

Use it only after planning key ownership, rotation, and recovery. Losing keys can make files unreadable, while adding the wrong files can expose secrets.
