git-secret-tell - adds a person, who can access private data.
|
|
===============================================================
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git secret tell [-m] [-d dir] [emails]...
|
|
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
`git-secret tell` receives one or more email addresses as an input, searches for the `gpg`-key in the `gpg`
|
|
`homedir` by these emails, then imports the corresponding public key into `git-secret`'s inner keychain.
|
|
From this moment this person can encrypt new files with the keyring which contains their key,
|
|
but they cannot decrypt the old files, which were already encrypted without their key.
|
|
The files should be re-encrypted with the new keyring by someone who has the unencrypted files.
|
|
|
|
Because `git-secret tell` works with only email addresses, it will exit with an error if you have
|
|
multiple keys in your keychain with specified email addresses, or if one of the specified emails
|
|
is already associated with a key in the git-secret keychain.
|
|
|
|
Versions of `git-secret tell` after 0.3.2 will warn about keys that are expired, revoked, or otherwise invalid,
|
|
and also if multiple keys are found for a single email address.
|
|
|
|
**Do not manually import secret keys into `git-secret`**. It won't work with imported secret keys anyway.
|
|
|
|
## OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
-m - takes your current `git config user.email` as an identifier for the key.
|
|
-d - specifies `--homedir` option for the `gpg`, basically use this option if your store your keys in a custom location.
|
|
-h - shows help.
