-Possible outputs are either ```file``` or ```git```. The file backend takes a destination directory as argument and will keep a file per device, with most recent running version of a device. The GIT backend (recommended) will initialize an empty GIT repository in the specified path and create a new commit on every configuration change.

Maps define how to map a model's fields to model [model fields](https://github.com/ytti/oxidized/tree/master/lib/oxidized/model). Most of the settings should be self explanatory, log is ignored if `use_syslog`(requires Ruby >= 2.0) is set to `true`.

+### Output: Git-Crypt
+
+This uses the gem git and system git-crypt interfaces. Have a look at [GIT-Crypt](https://www.agwa.name/projects/git-crypt/) documentation to know how to install it.
+Additionally to user and email informations, you have to provide the users ID that can be a key ID, a full fingerprint, an email address, or anything else that uniquely identifies a public key to GPG (see "HOW TO SPECIFY A USER ID" in the gpg man page).
+
+
+For a single repositories for all devices:
+
+``` yaml
+output:
+ default: gitcrypt
+ gitcrypt:
+ user: Oxidized
+ email: o@example.com
+ repo: "/var/lib/oxidized/devices"
+ users:
+ - "0x0123456789ABCDEF"
+ - "<user@example.com>"
+```
+
+And for groups repositories:
+
+``` yaml
+output:
+ default: gitcrypt
+ gitcrypt:
+ user: Oxidized
+ email: o@example.com
+ repo: "/var/lib/oxidized/git-repos/default"
+ users:
+ - "0xABCDEF0123456789"
+ - "0x0123456789ABCDEF"
+```
+
+Oxidized will create a repository for each group in the same directory as the `default`. For
+example:
+
+``` csv
+host1:ios:first
+host2:nxos:second
+```
+
+This will generate the following repositories:
+
+``` bash
+$ ls /var/lib/oxidized/git-repos
+
+default.git first.git second.git
+```
+
+If you would like to use groups and a single repository, you can force this with the `single_repo` config.
+
+``` yaml
+output:
+ default: gitcrypt
+ gitcrypt:
+ single_repo: true
+ repo: "/var/lib/oxidized/devices"
+ users:
+ - "0xABCDEF0123456789"
+ - "0x0123456789ABCDEF"
+
+```
+
+Please note that user list is only updated once at creation.
