How auto renew work?

Hi, thanks for creating this plugin @JustinAiken
Do I need to keep local repo to auto renew SSL? Also if I have private repo and using token in config.yml will it become public anyway?

It doesn't! 😛

Yeah.. I guess you could set up your repo on a VPS and set a cron to auto renew every 80 days, but I usually just wait until I get the email from letsencrypt that it's about to expire, then cd /path/to/my/blog && bundle exec jekyll letsencrypt - not quite painful enough to automate

Also if I have private repo and using token in config.yml will it become public anyway?

You don't have have to put the token in config.yml - instead you can do GITLAB_TOKEN='much_secret' bundle exec jekyll letsencrypt
