Scanning different file types

dug42 opened this issue · comments

Describe the bug
The application appears to only scan yaml files.

To Reproduce
Create a new repo.
Create a few different files (ie: .yml .json .xml .py)
In each file add a secret, use the generic-api-key rule
Run the app gitleaks detect --no-git -verbose

  • or -
    Stage your files and run git commit -m "test"

Expected behavior
I expect it to scan all the files in the directory OR all the files in the commit and to report each leak.

Basic Info (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu 20.04
  • Gitleaks Version: 8.0.0 - 8.18.2

Additional context
I've tried various application flags/options, but have not found a way to make it scan all files. Based on what I searched and found, it should be scanning all the files.

Side Note: I tried to join the discord server, but it reports the invite as invalid or expired.
