git-secret-remove - removes files from index.

SYNOPSIS

git secret remove [-c] <pathspec>...

DESCRIPTION

git-secret-remove - stops files from being tracked by git-secret.

This deletes filenames from .gitsecret/paths/mapping.cfg, which stops these files from being tracked by git-secret, and from being encrypted to, or decrypted from, .secret encrypted versions.

There's also a -c option to delete existing encrypted versions of the files provided.

Note unlike add, which automatically add pathnames to .gitignore, remove does not delete pathnames from .gitignore.

(See git-secret(7) for information about renaming the .gitsecret folder using the SECRETS_DIR environment variable.

OPTIONS

-c  - deletes existing real encrypted files.
-h  - shows help.
