## Historique du projet et usages

git-secret is a Bash and GPG tool for storing encrypted private files inside a Git repository. It targets the deployment and configuration problem of keeping secrets versioned with code without committing plaintext values.

### Historique du projet

The GitHub repository was created in 2016 by the sobolevn project, and the documentation frames the tool around GPG public-key access control. The command set grew around `init`, `tell`, `add`, `hide`, `reveal`, `cat`, and access-removal operations.

The changelog records steady hardening of a shell-based security tool: path mappings moved into `.gitsecret/paths/mapping.cfg`, modified-file hiding was added, FreeBSD and BusyBox support improved, Fedora packaging was noted, CI moved across platforms, and the 0.5.0 series added armored-output support and more robust permission handling.

### Historique d'adoption

git-secret gained a broader footprint than many Git secret tools because it was packaged for Homebrew, Debian-family systems, Fedora/RPM workflows, Alpine, and other downstream repositories. Its documentation also includes CI/CD usage, which made it attractive for deployment pipelines that already rely on Git and GPG.

### Modes d'utilisation

Practitioners initialize `.gitsecret`, add trusted users' public keys with `git secret tell`, mark files with `git secret add`, encrypt them with `git secret hide`, and decrypt them with `git secret reveal` or `git secret cat`. Teams rotate access by removing a person from the keyring and re-encrypting files for the remaining recipients.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

The package is significant because it is a portable shell implementation of repository-local secret sharing. It appeals to users who want encrypted files to travel with Git history and package managers rather than adopting an external secrets service.

### Chronologie

- 2016: Public GitHub repository created.
- 0.2.3: `.gitsecret/paths/mapping.cfg` introduced for tracked secret path metadata.
- 0.2.6: Fedora package availability noted and FreeBSD/Windows testing work expanded.
- 0.3.0: BusyBox support and additional GPG behavior handling added.
- 0.5.0: Armored encrypted output and stronger key-directory permissions added.

### Related projects

- Related technologies include GnuPG, Git hooks, CI/CD secret injection, repository-local encrypted files, and other Git-centered secret-management tools.
