Problem
git-crypt, git secret were found. What is your personal preference and why?
A couple of months ago, I have applied git-crypt. It was quite hard to set it up and the secrets are stored as binaries. I wonder whether git-secret is less cumbersome to set up. What other options are available?

Solution
I personally am a fan of Mozilla SOps, we've introduced it to two teams and it's gone down well both times, it has proven easy to implement both with local development and our CI/CD pipelines.
It has support for PGP/GPG to encrypt secrets but also supports Amazon KMS, GCP KMS and Azure KeyVault thus works well in an enterprise cloud-native infrastructure.
