it's a bit tedious in some ways but I really liked working with GitHubs secret system. As long as you ensure nothing changes in the GitHub run system you could use various key signing mechanisms or even uploads to service providers like AWS with out sharing via dot files or user configuration only files that end up being committed to the repo.
