@johnlane, in general, it's a terrible idea to allow secrets to be committed regardless of their encrypted state. I find the concept to be interesting, but implore anyone reading this to keep in mind that a lot of noobies use dotfiles to set up their environment, so any suggestion that it's OK to upload secrets is not a good one. It's a super cool concept, but I think putting it here might not be a good idea. Just be careful about this one, it seems like it could be teaching bad practices.

@Plazmaz sure there are issues with storing encrypted secrets in a vcs due to the fact that they are there forever, and I wouldn't recommend one makes such repos public. But in a private repo of a personal nature (which one's dotfiles typically would be) I'm not sure its such an issue.
Also I am not the first to do this and there are many other examples that do, such as yadm which is linked from the dotfiles front page. I don't think I am setting any precedent here :)
I might add some notes to my package about this though.
