Due to SSO across different domains, I have resorted to symlinking some entries in my .password-store. It works and syncs well across machines, including an OS X one.

However, whenever I do a “Synchronise repository” with Android Password Store, it replaces all those symlinks with plaintext files containing the path to the linked file, com: mits and pushes that back. As a result, the next pass git pull on any other machine pulls down those invalid files, leading to occasional confusion when I try to retrieve a password:

gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: decrypt_message failed: Unknown system error

This should have been fixed in 2016... see #98 (comment) I'll try to do it ASAP :)

For the simlink support see #98.

on existing repositories as well.
