I maintain an open source project called Blackbox which makes it easy to store GPG-encrypted secrets in Git, Mercurial, Subversion, and others.

I've written up my ideas for where the project should go in the future, including renaming the commands, change where the keys are stored, add a "repo-less" mode, and possibly rewrite it in a different language:

Feedback welcome!

My open source project BlackBox is now available in the MacPorts collection. If you use MacPorts, simply type "sudo port install vcs_blackbox". There was already a package called "blackbox" so I had to call it something else.

Blackbox is a set of bash scripts that let you safely store secrets in a VCS repo (i.e. Git, Mercurial, or Subversion) using Gnu Privacy Guard (GPG). For more info, visit the homepage: https://github.com/StackExchange/blackbox

I'm looking for volunteers to maintain packages for Brew, Debian, and other package formats. If you are looking to learn how to make packages, this is a good starter project and will help people keep their files secure. Interested? Contact me by email open an issue in Github.
