There are actually three schemes that can be used for management of the
encryption keys. When using the encryption=hybrid scheme, additional
GPG keys can be given access to the encrypted special remote easily
(without re-encrypting everything). When using encryption=shared,
a shared key is generated and stored in the git repository, allowing
anyone who can clone the git repository to access it. Finally, when using
encryption=pubkey, content in the special remote is directly encrypted
to the specified GPG keys, and additional ones cannot easily be given
access.
