Hi everyone,
I would appreciate hearing peoples’ various arguments for/against using vault password files versus manually entering passwords.
I’ve been manually entering in vault passwords as I didn’t want to leave keys on my laptop in case stolen / compromised. I’ve seen posts about configuring git to decrypt vault files for diffing purposes using vault password files for ease. After my knee-jerk wtf, I started thinking about it in terms of using SSH identity and authorized key for traversing hosts within your network easily.
Thank you for your thoughts and insights,
Andy
