This PR a fix for #176.
#176 is a bug with
tell
which adds all keys with a substring matching the specified username. For example,git secret tell bob
will add all keys with the stringbob
anywhere in the username or email address.Here's the details:
email address
, and optionally aname
.email address
and theusername
when looking for keys matching a string.Also,
name
associated with a key is not guaranteed to be unique andemail
can be a substring of other names or emailsFor the above reasons, this PR changes the code so you have to specify users by email address with
git secret tell
. (Edit: The docs always said to use email addresses so there is no doc change.)@sobolevn @simbo1905 thoughts/suggestions/input?
