Populate production secrets in local config/secrets.yml:
```
  production:
    secret_key_base: d6ced...
```
Add to Capfile:
```
  require 'capistrano/secrets_yml'
```
Create secrets.yml file on the remote server by executing this task:
```
  $ bundle exec cap production setup
```

add it to local config/secrets.yml:

  production:
    secret_key_base: d6ced...
    foobar: some_other_secret

```
  $ bundle exec cap production setup
```
