git-secret-add - starts to track added files. ============================================= ## SYNOPSIS git secret add [-i] ... ## 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 thie 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. ## SEE ALSO [git-secret-init(1)](http://git-secret.io/git-secret-init), [git-secret-tell(1)](http://git-secret.io/git-secret-tell), [git-secret-hide(1)](http://git-secret.io/git-secret-hide), [git-secret-reveal(1)](http://git-secret.io/git-secret-reveal)
