Terrible ideas.

[Alain De Vos]

And just like that.
My neovim config , PUBLIC
My firefox sqlite cookies , VERY PRIVATE

Both in the same .config directory

What a terrible idea. Who invented this . Microsoft ?

Both in the same .config directory

/etc/passwd; PUBLIC
/etc/master.passwd; VERY PRIVATE

Both in the same /etc/ directory.

Trust me I just pushed .config with sqlite to public git.... Also terrible idea.

With time one becomes more wise, now NixOS, will do same on FreeBSD,

[x@nixos:~/.config]$ ls -la . | grep "\->"
lrwxrwxrwx 1 x users    24 mei  4 10:53 chromium -> /home/x/PRIVATE/chromium
lrwxrwxrwx 1 x users    37 mei  4 11:01 google-chrome -> /home/x/PRIVATE/google-chrome-flatpak
lrwxrwxrwx 1 x users    37 mei  4 11:04 google-chrome-flatpak -> /home/x/PRIVATE/google-chrome-flatpak
lrwxrwxrwx 1 x users    23 mei  4 10:52 mozilla -> /home/x/PRIVATE/mozilla

[x@nixos:~/.config]$

You're not the first, and won't be the last, that accidentally pushed passwords or other credentials to a public git repository.

Learned my hard lesson, currently Nixos, but will come back to FreeBSD poudriere build later.
One can see , PRIVATE only softlinks , .config
-> mozilla , chromium, google-chrome , google-chrome-flatpak.
