No idea... but my searching yielded:
- 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2456954/git-encrypt-decrypt-remote-repository-files-while-push-pull
- 
http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Transparently-encrypt-repository-contents-with-GPG-td2470145.html

They both seem to be speaking about the same thing. Not really
understanding it all, but it sounds like a locally kept "filter" of
some sort that runs gpg -d on whatever files you pull and gpg -ea on
whatever you push.
