chore: ignore every .env variant, not one at a time - #16
Merged
Conversation
.gitignore did not cover .env.bak or .env.local. A .env.bak containing populated API keys sat in a local stash in another repo since 2026-07-13, untracked and one `git add -A` from being committed. Use a glob and negate the committed .env.example template.

.gitignoredid not cover.env.bakor.env.local.This surfaced concretely: a
.env.bakcontaining populated OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google keys sat in a local stash inOpenAdaptsince 2026-07-13. It was untracked and on no remote, so nothing leaked, but it was onegit add -Afrom being committed.Replaces the one-at-a-time approach with
.env.*and negates.env.exampleso any committed template stays tracked. Verified:.env.bakis now ignored.Part of a sweep across every repo in the workspace that had the same gap.
