Seems like it would be easy for someone (particularly new to coding) to forget to add the log file to a .gitignore and inadvertently publish their key. Maybe the logger should scrub the keys before saving?

ASSISTANT: To address this issue, we need to modify the `aider/main.py` file. We will add a function to scrub sensitive information like the OpenAI API key from the verbose logs before they are saved.

Here are the steps:

1. Define a new function `scrub_sensitive_info` that takes a string as input and replaces sensitive information (like the OpenAI API key) with a placeholder like `***`.
2. Call this function before logging the arguments in verbose mode.

Here is the *edit block* for these changes:

```python
aider/main.py
<<<<<<< ORIGINAL
    if args.verbose:
        show = parser.format_values()
        io.tool_output(show)
        io.tool_output("Option settings:")
        for arg, val in sorted(vars(args).items()):
            io.tool_output(f"  - {arg}: {val}")
=======
    def scrub_sensitive_info(text):
        # Replace sensitive information with placeholder
        return text.replace(args.openai_api_key, '***')

    if args.verbose:
        show = scrub_sensitive_info(parser.format_values())
        io.tool_output(show)
        io.tool_output("Option settings:")
        for arg, val in sorted(vars(args).items()):
            io.tool_output(f"  - {arg}: {scrub_sensitive_info(str(val))}")
>>>>>>> UPDATED
```

This change will ensure that the OpenAI API key is not saved in the log file when the program is run in verbose mode.
