About

This is NOT the official git-crypt package. It is an unofficial, unsigned community build.

git-crypt provides transparent file encryption in git; encrypted files show up as normal

(encrypted) files in the repository but are transparently decrypted when checked out.

AGWA (the git-crypt author) did not publish an official Windows binary for the 0.8.0 release -

see https://github.com/AGWA/git-crypt/issues/336. This package was compiled from AGWA's

unmodified 0.8.0 source using the same MSYS2/MinGW recipe as upstream's own CI, and is

distributed from https://github.com/ja-ortiz-uniandes/git-crypt-windows-builds. It has not been

reviewed, tested, or signed by AGWA. Once AGWA publishes an official Windows build for a given

version, prefer the AGWA.git-crypt package instead.

Security

No known CVEs for git-crypt (unofficial Windows build).

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
