I would like to use git to back-up, vc, and sync everything crucial on my text-based system, but some content, most notably my passwords file, are gpg encypted. This breaks git because reviewing changes essentially produces comparisons of gibberish. Does anyone know a solution for syncing/VC of encrypted data, which won't be only passwords?
@worldsendless maybe not the answer you’re looking for, but adding those files (or the directory) to gitignore might be the best way to go. It’s not a great idea to track passwords in git anyhow, even if they’re encrypted
@turak Totally agree about not including sensitive information in code repos. These would be private (re: not even Github/lab) repos. But I have essentially avoided git for these files because it simply doesn't work. Is there any kind of internal solution that would maintain public encryption, but allow git-like reviewable synchronization of encrypted files?
