Please explain like I'm 5 years old: what is a GPG key, a key server, and (especially) a keyring?
We use a modified https://github.com/spwhitton/git-remote-gcrypt on some of our git repos and employ the GPG Keychain app (from https://gpgtools.org) to help us manage the associated keys.

keybase git repositories
I used to rely heavily of Keybase reops, but since the takeover I'm no longer confident in their longevity. An alternative option is to encrypt files yourself and use a mainstream git provider. There are utils like gcrypt specifically for this use case. That way you can be confident in the encryption AND availability.

git-annex encrypted on rsync.net?
Yes, git-annex is perfect for this. It can do this with encryption via the rsync special remote. To store the git branches themselves, you can use git-remote-gcrypt. For backups, you can store the files on external hdds (additional to rsync.net) and keep them mostly offline/powered off. git-annex works really well with offline drives. Alternatively you can backup to another cloud provider that is supported as a special-remote.
