My first initial gut thought is, could this be as a good ol cross platform method of password management? I've never been able to properly manage keepass due to syncing between different platforms being a pain.
That sounds promising. I can't be the only one with this problem. (aka secure cross platform synchronized password management without requiring personal/managing cloud infrastructure.
Pass is a password manager that uses Git (or, rather, can use Git; it's optional) and I use the above-linked helper to configure a common remote repo (that's hosted in Dropbox) for all of my local copies of my password repo.
