Subject: [PATCH] Fix PII: replace /Users/username/ with ~ and <username>
 placeholder
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replace hardcoded user paths that triggered gitleaks PII detection:
- /Users/username/ → ~/
- /Users/user/ → ~/
- -Users-username- → -Users-<username>- (normalized paths)

Also fix the sed example to use <home> placeholder instead of
regex pattern that would match actual usernames.
