Description

When changing the unencrypted_regex rule in the .sops.yaml file and then changing the secret the unencrypted_regex rule is not updated and stays the same. Only -d -i followed by a -e -i works.

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior using a changed unencrypted_regex rule in .sops.yaml, then compare the encrypt and rotate command paths with the documented -d -i followed by -e -i workaround. Done means changing the rule and running an encrypt or rotate command applies the new rule instead of retaining the previous one.
