Gitleaks is a fast, lightweight, portable, and open-source secret scanner for git repositories, files, and directories. With over 6.8 million docker downloads, 11.2k GitHub stars, 1.7 million GitHub Downloads, thousands of weekly clones, and over 400k homebrew installs, gitleaks is the most trusted secret scanner among security professionals, enterprises, and developers. Gitleaks-Action is our official GitHub Action. You can use it to automatically run a gitleaks scan on all your team's pull requests and commits, or run on-demand scans. If you are scanning repos that belong to a GitHub organization account, then you'll have to obtain a license. Gitleaks can be installed using Homebrew, Docker, or Go. Gitleaks is also available in binary form for many popular platforms and OS types on the releases page. In addition, Gitleaks can be implemented as a pre-commit hook directly in your repo or as a GitHub action using Gitleaks-Action.
