Yes. Very crypt as adhoc encrypted folders I then move them around and versions them with git ( the version is not incremental, I just know if it’s the same hash .. )

Are you running git outside of the encrypted container? Or are you running it inside (versioning decrypted files)?

If you are doing the former, I used to use git-annex[1] for a similar purpose and liked it to keep track of where the encrypted versions of files are stored.

Outside, I’m versioning blob or encrypted data. I’m doing that for my password ( using the awesome “pass” cli ) And some pdf with PPI. Picture are backup non encrypted so It’s around 100mo since years. Checking… Less; 78mo.

But git annex look nifty! The use case is large file? Correct ?

The general digital forensic community switched to VeraCrypt for encryption evidence in transit via common carrier. So I agree on this.
