+# Pre-Commit-Hook
+The defined pre-commit-hook prevents committing passwords to the repository. In case a password is detected
+git commit fails.
+
+## Install pre-commit
+1. Install pre-commit-hook tool
+   `$ pip install pre-commit`
+
+## Enable secret-scanning pre-commit hook
+1. Update pre-commit-hook
+   `$ pre-commit autoupdate`
+2. Enable defined pre-commit-hook
+   `$ pre-commit install`
+
+## On repository initialization of pre-commit hook with detect-secrets
+If no `.secrets.baseline` is present, simply generate it:
+1. `$ detect-secrets scan --disable-plugin KeywordDetector --disable-plugin AWSKeyDetector > .secrets.baseline`
+2. Use Notepad++ or IntelliJ-Editor to convert `.secrets.baseline` to UTF-8
+
+## Add false-positives or force adding secrets
+1. `$ detect-secrets scan --baseline .secrets.baseline`
+2. If secrets are identified, add them to .secrets.baseline manually
+   For more details see: https://github.com/Yelp/detect-secrets#adding-secrets-to-baseline
