Greetings HN! I've forked the excellent work done by [vlaci/git-agecrypt](https://github.com/vlaci/git-agecrypt), looks like the original project has not been maintained for a while, so I decided to pick it up, update all the dependencies and add some thorough testing.

I like the ability to store sensitive data in public repositories, it's especially useful when bootstrapping new IaC repositories, you don't have anything at the beginning of a new project so there is no place yet to store secrets, this is "a way" of doing it.

I know you can use tools like SOPS but I think the transparent approach offered by tools like this one or git-crypt really shine for many use cases.

Looking forward to hear your feedback!
