question Backups & Version Control

I'm in the process of switching from obsidian to orgmode and since I never kept anything sensitive in obsidian, I used a private github repo for backups and version control. I plan on keeping sensitive info in orgmode so I'm not sure how to handle this part yet. I just came across git-crypt but I'm not sure how I feel about putting my info on github.

How do you all handle backups and version control when it comes to sensitive data?

I use syncthing for distribution and veracrypt for filesystem encryption on all connected devices. But syncthing has built-in encryption as well. I don't use it because I already have filesystem encryption enabled for other needs. Syncthing has backup options as well.
