How do i remove this? It's messing up all my commands like gc --amend

@amex-doug In order to remove git-secrets you just need to undo the operations the install scripts perform. If you installed via Makefile you just need to remove the man page and git-secrets script file. The man page is put in with the other man pages and the git-secrets script is put in your /usr/local/bin directory. On Windows you will need to remove it from the .git-secrets directory in your user profile along with your system path variable.

There is also another issue that is similar #95

Just a quick note; The patterns are stored in the .git/config -file under the [secrets] tag, in case anyone else, like me, get thrown off by adding a wrong pattern.

Pull Request #126 solves this, just would need that merged.

And/or add a note in the README that you can modify patterns by editing this file.

I ended up having to use git config --global --edit to fix a wrong pattern I added.

Oh wow so is this whole tool basically just an interface for .git/config secrets?

I doubt this is the case. I just added some patterns to .git/config without using this tool. Secrets are not checked. So this tool is doing something more.

The entries in git config secrets are the configuration for this tool. This tool can write and read them, and also then uses them to do all of the secrets checking functionality that is the core of the tool.

I have provided a review comment on #126.
