Usage

To initialize git-vault in a git repository run:

# Install git hooks, generate a key and display it to the user.
# git-vault will now automatically encrypt files on git commit.
# git-vault will also automatically decrypt files on git pull.
$ git-vault init

If you already have a key, you can provide that key to the init command:

# Install git hooks and store the provided key
$ git-vault init --key <key>

Because encrypted files must be ignored, you can add all the files you want to encrypt to your .gitignore file. To make sure git-vault knows which files to encrypt make sure to surround those files with #start:enc and #end:enc.

# .gitignore
#start:enc
secret.txt
#end:enc

To encrypt or decrypt files manually, you can run:

$ git-vault encrypt --key <key>
$ git-vault decrypt --key <key>

To generate a key manually, you can run:

$ git-vault generate

To view or set the current key, you can run:

# You can also set a new key if you provide --key <key>
$ git-vault key
