Privacy and safety

In this chapterUnderstand what stays local and which operations use the network.

• Nothing syncs by itself: no background fetch, pull or push.
• Only its own settings are touched: GitTrail changes only the Git config entries it created.
• Undo for every change to branches and history, and snapshots before discards.
• Wrong-account pushes are stopped, in the app and (with the push check) in any tool.
• Secrets are caught before you commit them.
• Local only: the app runs on your computer (127.0.0.1) with a secret key, and loads nothing from the internet.
• Tokens stay in your system keychain.
