Oh wow.
That looks like an overly complicated solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Synching stuff that is in git? Why not just use.... git? Also npm.... and the example has an env var named "DB_PASS" in it. You never put passwords in version control.
It is generally considered a bad idea to use envs for passing secrets in general since envs for process n are available to other processes which have access and permission.
