- Tencent WeChat is now a GitHub secret scanning partner
- Why do people use plain text for usernames and passwords on Github? A cautionary tale.

Searching across github
Shhgit is a really neat tool for this
- Around 50,000 GitHub credentials leaked as metadata inside commits

TruffleHog v3 – Detect and automatically verify over 600 credential types
There are a lot of secret detection tools out there. It probably is going to depend a lot on the specific features you care about. I personally really like shhgit[0] which is MIT licensed and is the tool I've found to most match my workflows.

My MetaMask Private Keys Stolen from GitHub Private Repo in 1 Hour
Assuming that the person you were working with didn't drain your wallet, there are many tools which can be used to actively monitor for commits being done on GitHub with secrets of sort.
The first one that comes to my mind is shhgit (https://github.com/eth0izzle/shhgit)
Anyone can self host it and then add multiple GitHub Dev keys to it. Then this can be used to monitor GitHub commits being done, majority of which can be categorized as "secrets".

[Help Needed] Securing Customized Gitleaks and Backend Communication?
I work in IT and we're enhancing our 'Shift Left Security' approach to prevent sensitive data leaks in our GitHub repositories. We've customized Gitleaks to send git-related information (like remote repository, author details, commit hash etc.) to our backend after each commit. This setup helps us monitor Gitleaks usage among our developers. (gitleaks)

Go Security Scanner
Cool. What features/capabilities are different compared to gitleaks?

My boss keeps committing his creds into git
To add my anecdote, testing out Trufflehog versus Gitleaks and detect-secrets the other tools seemed superior on detection rate and easier to work with.

Tools for very basic security audits
Some tools to consider: Gitleaks - open-source secret scanner for git repositories, files, and directories. Retire.js - dependency check tool for client JS code. Censys - It’s a search engine that you can use, for example, to scan any IP address and check open ports, software versions, location of the servers, etc. If you want to check more tools, you can download this free ebook with a list of recommended security tools: https://brightinventions.pl/blog/app-security-free-ebook/ The listed tools are free or offer free trials.

Someone has access to my private repos = I lost 140k
I GET IT I need to follow best practice and not upload any sensitive information, even if its a private repo. But through my 10 yeras of coding it happened twice. However these keys only lived in 2 areas: my laptop and GITHUB. My laptop is pretty secured, and the timing of the above events just make me really think someone internally at Github is running https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks on private repos he / she has access to.
