Re:GitHub commit search: “remove password” by BenderV on Wednesday February 15, 2017 @07:30AM (#13651525)
Good idea! Shouldn't be so hard to implement a simple prototype.

if "PASSWORD=xxx" in text => prompt alert or ask confirm

Next step would be to take this list (search result), make a curated list of 100-1000 unencrypted password (text/line + files + infos of repo), and then hard code some rules to detect +80% of cases.
