git-secret-add - starts to track added files.
=============================================

## SYNOPSIS

    git secret add [-i] <pathspec>...


## DESCRIPTION
`git-secret-add` adds a filepath(es) into `.gitsecret/paths/mapping.cfg`. 
When adding files to encrypt, ensure that they are ignored by `git` by mentioning 
them in .gitignore, since they must be secure and not be committed into the remote repository unencrypted.

If there's no users in the `git-secret`'s keyring, when adding a file, an exception will be raised.

Use the `git secret add` command to add filenames to this file.  
It is not recommended to add filenames directly into `.gitsecret/paths/mapping.cfg`.


## OPTIONS

    -i  - adds given files to `.gitignore` if they're not there already
    -h  - shows this help.


## MANUAL

Run `man git-secret-add` to see this note.
