Git-crypt remove user.

remove-gpg-user.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# Script to remove GPG key from git-crypt
#
# It will re-initialize git-crypt for the repository and re-add all keys except
# the one requested for removal.
#
# Note: You still need to change all your secrets to fully protect yourself.
# Removing a user will prevent them from reading future changes but they will
# still have a copy of the data up to the point of their removal.
#
# Use:
#  ./remove-gpg-user.sh [FULL_GPG_FINGERPRINT]
#
# E.g.:
#  ./remove-gpg-user.sh 3BC18383F838C0B815B961480F8CAF5467D
#
# The script will create multiple commits to your repo. Feel free to squash them
# all down to one.
#
# Based on https://github.com/AGWA/git-crypt/issues/47#issuecomment-212734882

Hmm no pull requests for gists? I hacked the script a bit more to allow multiple keys https://gist.github.com/phunehehe/c083a3d27c1e1c8f316ad6790368b8b5.

Please make this into a pr! 😄

I believe that --parents is not supported on MAC OS/X machines.

As indicated on Stack Overflow, you can use either gcp (coming from the coreutils homebrew: brew install coreutils) or rsync -rp -R $i $TMPDIR/$BASENAME; -- see https://gist.github.com/Falkor/7b29f16f5f79404fe41476be0d992783 (@glogiotatidis if you want to update your own gist ;))

Added a new version, which allows spaces in filenames: https://gist.github.com/elektro-wolle/ed8da166474af46aad3bd7189665077f
Uses /usr/local/bin/gcp for MacOS-compatibility.
