Description

Private files can be encrypted before they are stored inside a Git repository, allowing teams to keep selected secrets near the code while limiting plaintext access. The tool is useful for small secret sets managed with GPG.

Encryption does not fix secrets that were already committed in plaintext. Verify recipients, key backups, repository history, and recovery procedures before relying on it for credentials.
