SYNOPSIS

9       git secret tell [-m] [-d dir] [emails]...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       git-secret  tell  receives  one  or  more  email addresses as an input,
13       searches for the gpg-key in the gpg homedir by these emails,  then  im‐
14       ports  the  corresponding  public key into git-secret´s inner keychain.
15       From this moment this person can encrypt new  files  with  the  keyring
16       which  contains their key, but they cannot decrypt the old files, which
17       were already encrypted without their key. The files  should  be  re-en‐
18       crypted with the new keyring by someone who has the unencrypted files.
19
20       Because  git-secret  tell works with only email addresses, it will exit
21       with an error if you have multiple keys in your keychain with specified
22       email  addresses,  or if one of the specified emails is already associ‐
23       ated with a key in the git-secret keychain.
24
25       Versions of git-secret tell after 0.3.2 will warn about keys  that  are
26       expired,  revoked,  or otherwise invalid, and also if multiple keys are
27       found for a single email address.
28
29       Do not manually import secret keys into git-secret. It won´t work  with
30       imported secret keys anyway.
31

OPTIONS

33       -m  - takes your current `git config user.email` as an identifier for the key.
34       -d  - specifies `--homedir` option for the `gpg`, basically use this option if your store your keys in a custom location.
35       -h  - shows help.
