Is your .git folder open to the public?
The .git folder holds your project's history. If your host serves it, tools can often rebuild your source code, including any secret that was ever committed.

How it happens
The whole project folder gets deployed, instead of only the build output.
The host has no rule to block paths that start with /.git.
What our scan checks
- We ask for /.git/config. If it opens and looks like a git config file, we flag it.

Paste this into your AI builder
In my AI app builder (Lovable, Bolt, Cursor, Replit, v0 or similar): My /.git folder is publicly served. 1. Remove the .git folder from what my host serves (deploy the build output only). 2. Add a rule to block every path that starts with /.git. 3. Check my git history for secrets; I will rotate any I find.
