Gitleaks

Gitleaks is a tool written in Go that detects confidential information such as password, API key, and token in go stores, files, and content given with stdin. With the Regex-based detection engine, it offers three scanning modes, go, dir, and stdin; it can be run as a pre-commit hook or GitHub Action. The project is complete in feature: no new feature is added, future versions will include only security patches, and developer focus has shifted to Betterleaks.
