Redact personal email from public documentation - #63
Merged
Conversation
The address appeared in prose across public documentation on the default branch. Replaced with REDACTED-operator-google-account, which preserves the meaning of each sentence (which identity is in use) without publishing the identifier. Deliberately NOT changed: - allowed_signers principal in home/.chezmoidata.yaml. It is matched against the committer identity for SSH signature verification; changing it without also changing git user.email would break verification. - approved_by fields in policy data and their test fixtures. Those are audit records, and the fixtures must continue to match the policy. Scope note: this address is also the git author identity on every commit in this and other public repositories, so it remains publicly visible through commit metadata. Redacting the prose does not close that surface; changing user.email going forward would.
