This blog is part of our Rails 6 series. Rails 6.0.0.rc1 was recently released.In Rails 5.2, encrypted credentails are stored in the file config/credentials.yml.enc. This is a single flat file which is encrypted by the key located in config/master.key.Rails 5.2 does not support storing credentials of different environments with different encryption keys.

With this change, credentials that belong to different environments can be stored in separate files with their own encryption key.
