Most of these scripts have been tested on Windows 10 and the official developer bash instance. Does not work with Cygwin or Mysys2.
Looking for maintainers: I have been and probably will forever be too busy to maintain this properly on my own. I am looking for a few others to help out, if you want to be a maintainer either email me or raise an issue. I will probably only accept maintainers who have made a few contributions (no matter how small) and seem to understand the vision of this project.

Cloudup
A tool that facilitates backing up github repositories to bitbucket
If you have ever felt the fear of the github unicorn this could be your savior
Furthermore you can backup the repositories of any github user to your bitbucket.
Backup all github repositories of the designated user at once with the -a option. Or run it with no flags and backup individual repositories.
Crypt
A wrapper for openssl that allows for quickly encrypting and decrypting files
crypt -e [original file] [encrypted file] # encrypts files
crypt -d [encrypted file] [output file] # decrypts files- Uses AES 256 level encryption
- Key is salted before creation
- Password is never in plain text, and OpenSSL generates key based on password
- Encrypted data is encoded in Base64, so it can be used as plain text in an email. (Not usually necessary if attached as a file)
Tested With .pdf, .txt, .docx, .doc, .png, .jpeg
CAUTION Make sure to use different filenames, otherwise your file will be overwritten!

Siteciphers

Sometimes ciphers are deemed vulnerable, so when you are changing configuration, this can be used to confirm that the cipher truly is disabled.
