Matthias it looks as if somebody has come up with a "working" system that uses the 'smudge & clean' filter features of git. Seems to me that to use it for storing the repo on a non trusted or possibly public git repo with some private content in the files this seems to be a workable solution. Transparent Git Encryption https://gist.github.com/873637 and/or possibly https://github.com/shadowhand/git-encrypt The way to do this is to use git's "smudge" and "clean" filters, but it's not necessarily recommended for reasons that are explained here by Junio C Hamano, the maintainer of git: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/113221 -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Transparently-encrypt-repository-contents-with-GPG-tp2470145p7487506.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
