One of the big things we've worked on over the past few months is giving users fine grained control of which files are indexed by kite:

- Kite only indexes directories that you have explicitly enabled

- You can create a .kiteignore file (same semantics as .gitignore) to exclude specific files / patterns.

Do you have a sanitizer that detects stuff that looks like crypto keys and censors it before upload? Offhand, sounds like it would be pretty easy to compute just using an appropriate entropy measure.

It would probably make sense to default to using .gitignore if a .kiteignore hasn't been specified; likely the same things that you'd want hidden.

That clarifies things. Thanks!
