# Secrets
|
||
|
|
Secrets are managed using [git-crypt][git-crypt] so you can keep your flake in
|
||
|
|
a public repository like GitHub without exposing your password or other
|
||
|
|
sensitive data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default, everything in the secrets folder is automatically encrypted. Just
|
||
|
|
be sure to run `git-crypt init` before putting anything in here.
|
||

|
> ##### _Note:_
|
||
|
|
> Currently, there is [no mechanism][secrets-issue] in nix to deploy secrets
|
||
|
|
> within the nix/store so, if they end up in the nix/store after deployment, they
|
||
|
|
> will be world readable on that machine.
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
> The author of nixflk intends to implement a workaround for this situation in
|
||
|
|
> the near future, but for the time being, simple be aware of this.
