Symmetric secret key rotation

Open ConnorAtherton opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

I didn't see anything in the README about key rotation. Is there a command like:

git-crypt re-encrypt /path/to/old/key /path/to/new/key

Not yet, though the framework is in place to support it. It's surprisingly complicated to do in a way that doesn't completely break history. See https://github.com/AGWA/git-crypt/issues/47#issuecomment-90788733.
