- ams6110 13y agoThe flaw is in having this "private" data in a public repo to begin with. If your data are private, don't put your project on github.
- crystaln 13y agoWhile I'm certain you and your organization have a perfect record of never checking inappropriate things into your git repository, mine does not. Even if all the employees at your company were perfect, there is still a chance of inappropriate information getting into the repository.
