In my case, I have things like Github Personal Access Tokens stored in my password manager and then use chezmoi's templates to populate them in my dotfiles, for example:
https://github.com/twpayne/dotfiles/blob/master/home/dot_zshrc.tmpl#L103 https://github.com/twpayne/dotfiles/blob/master/home/dot_zsh...
This means that:
1. My secrets are safely stored in my password manager so I can share my dotfiles.
2. When I update the secret in my password manager it automatically gets updated in my dotfiles when I run `chezmoi apply`.
- mixmastamyk 2y agoHmm, I don’t keep any secrets in dot files and have never thought to. Seems simpler that way.
- mixmastamyk 2y agoTo clarify, .ssh/* are “dot files” and have a private key but I dont track them in the repo.
