# Transition material in .secret to the secret_key_base key in config/secrets.yml.
# Historically, ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] takes precedence over .secret, so we maintain that
# behavior.
#
# It also used to be the case that the key material in ENV['SECRET_KEY_BASE'] or .secret
# was used to encrypt OTP (two-factor authentication) data so if present, we copy that key
# material into config/secrets.yml under otp_key_base.
#
# Finally, if we have successfully migrated all secrets to config/secrets.yml, delete the
# .secret file to avoid confusion.

Rails.application.secrets.#{key} was blank, but the literal value in config/secrets.yml was:
  #{old}

This probably isn't the expected value for this secret. To keep using a literal Erb string in config/secrets.yml, replace `<%` with `<%%`.
