+=== Storing Encrypted Credentials in Source Control
+
+The Rails `credentials` commands provide access to encrypted credentials,
+so you can safely store access tokens, database passwords, and the like
+safely inside the app without relying on a mess of ENVs.
+
+This also allows for atomic deploys: no need to coordinate key changes
+to get everything working as the keys are shipped with the code.
+
+=== Setup
+
+Applications after Rails 5.2 automatically have a basic credentials file generated
+that just contains the secret_key_base used by MessageVerifiers/MessageEncryptors, like the ones
+signing and encrypting cookies.
+
+For applications created prior to Rails 5.2, we'll automatically generate a new
+credentials file in `config/credentials.yml.enc` the first time you run `bin/rails credentials:edit`.
+If you didn't have a master key saved in `config/master.key`, that'll be created too.
+
+Don't lose this master key! Put it in a password manager your team can access.
+Should you lose it no one, including you, will be able to access any encrypted
+credentials.
+
+Don't commit the key! Add `config/master.key` to your source control's
+ignore file. If you use Git, Rails handles this for you.
+
+Rails also looks for the master key in `ENV["RAILS_MASTER_KEY"]`, if that's easier to manage.
+
+You could prepend that to your server's start command like this:
+
+ RAILS_MASTER_KEY="very-secret-and-secure" server.start
+
+=== Editing Credentials
+
+This will open a temporary file in `$EDITOR` with the decrypted contents to edit
+the encrypted credentials.
+
+When the temporary file is next saved the contents are encrypted and written to
+`config/credentials.yml.enc` while the file itself is destroyed to prevent credentials
+from leaking.
