## ENCRYPTION
It can be useful to manage confidential files, like SSH or GPG keys,
across multiple systems. However, doing so would put plain text data
into a Git repository, which often resides on a public system. yadm

To use this feature, a list of patterns must be created and saved as
$HOME/.yadm/encrypt. This list of patterns should be relative to the
configured work-tree (usually $HOME). For example:

.ssh/*.key
.gnupg/*.gpg

The yadm encrypt command will find all files matching the patterns, and
prompt for a password. Once a password has confirmed, the matching
files will be encrypted and saved as $HOME/.yadm/files.gpg. The pat-
terns and files.gpg should be added to the yadm repository so they are
prompt for a password. Once a password has confirmed, the matching
files will be encrypted and saved as $HOME/.yadm/files.gpg. The pat-
terns and files.gpg should be added to the yadm repository so they are
available across multiple systems.

To decrypt these files later, or on another system run yadm decrypt and
provide the correct password. After files are decrypted, permissions
provide the correct password. After files are decrypted, permissions
are automatically updated as described in the PERMISSIONS section.

## PERMISSIONS

sions are dependent upon the user's umask. This can result in confiden-
tial files with lax permissions.

To prevent this, yadm will automatically update the permissions of con-
fidential files. The "group" and "others" permissions will be removed

For every command yadm supports, a program can be provided to run
before or after that command. These are referred to as "hooks". yadm
looks for hooks in the directory $HOME/.yadm/hooks. Each hook is named
using a prefix of pre_ or post_, followed by the command which should
trigger the hook. For example, to create a hook which is run after
every yadm pull command, create a hook named post_pull. Hooks must

trigger the hook. For example, to create a hook which is run after
every yadm pull command, create a hook named post_pull. Hooks must
have the executable file permission set.

If a pre_ hook is defined, and the hook terminates with a non-zero exit
status, yadm will refuse to run the yadm command. For example, if a
pre_commit hook is defined, but that command ends with a non-zero exit
status, the yadm commit will never be run. This allows one to "short-
