NAME

git-secret-init - initializes git-secret repository.

SYNOPSIS

git secret init

DESCRIPTION

git-secret-init - initializes a git-secret repo by setting up a .gitsecret directory.

git-secret-init should be run inside a git repo, to create the .gitsecret directory and initialize the repo for git-secret. Until a repository is initialized with git secret init , all other git-secret commands are unavailable.

If a .gitsecret directory already exists, git-secret-init exits without making any changes. Otherwise,

	•		.gitignore is modified to ignore git-secret ´s random_seed_file , and to not ignore .secret files,
	•		a .gitsecret directory is created with the sub-directories /keys and /paths,
	•		The .gitsecret/keys subdirectory permission is set to 700 to make gnupg happy.

See git-secret(7) https://git-secret.io/git-secret for information about renaming the .gitsecret folder with the SECRETS_DIR environment variable, and changing the extension git-secret uses for secret files with the SECRETS_EXTENSION environment variable.
