That is an option I’ve been thinking about but I’ve never used it, I’m not a dev. Maybe I’ll look at it more seriously since it does sound like what would work best, I’d really apprecieate the versioning. Thanks!

Definitely worth a shot.

One thing I do to prevent stuff from getting into a public git repo is:

In the git repo, make a file called .gitignore then add the line .env to it. Then git will ignore any file named .env

edit compose files from a computer that is separate from the one that gets secrets. I have my desktop setup to push to github. Then I make a change, then simply run `git pull on my server to download the changes.

make the .env only viewable by root (you’ll have to use sudo nano) by running sudo chmod 600 .env && sudo chown root:root .env
