git-secret-killperson - deletes key identified by an email from the inner keyring.
==================================================================================
## SYNOPSIS
git secret killperson <emails>...
## DESCRIPTION
This command removes the keys associated with the selected email addresses from the keyring.
If you remove a keypair's access with `git-secret-killperson`, and run `git-secret-reveal` and `git-secret-hide -r`,
it will be impossible for given users to decrypt the hidden files.
Using git-secret-killperson and re-encrypting the secrets does not prevent a user from extracting secrets that they have previously had access to.
The old keyrings and the secrets encrypted with them will still be readable by the user in the git history.
This means that any secrets that the user has had access to at any time must be changed and re-encrypted after their key has been removed from the keyring.
## OPTIONS
-h - shows this help.
## MANUAL
Run `man git-secret-killperson` to see this note.
