    Do y’all use git to store sensitive data like passwords, even encrypted? This does not sit well with me. At work, we use a vault. For personal use, I use a password manager and manually copy and paste those envs.

        I concur, which is why I was a bit surprised by this section of yadm’s webpage:

        It can be useful to manage confidential files, like SSH keys, across multiple systems. However, doing so would put plain text data into a Git repository, which often resides on a public system. yadm implements a feature which can make it easy to encrypt and decrypt a set of files so the encrypted version can be maintained in the Git repository.

        (emphasis mine)
