Starting a new rails 5.2 app generates a key in config/master.key. That file is added to the.gitignore, so when other members of my team check it out, they do not have the key. Mar 24, 2018 You can share master.key with your team but don’t check into shared repository. Rails will be automatically adding it to.gitignore file for you. Master.key is the key which is necessary to de-crypt encrypted credentials. The encrypted credentials are saved on config/credentials.yml.enc.
If your master.key has been compromised, you might want to regenerate it.
No key regeneration feature at the moment.We have to do it manually. Cyberghost 5.5 key generator.
