parsing time "" as "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00": cannot parse "" as "2006"

[BloodStainedCrow]

I am following your Usage Example Section and when running nix-shell -p sops --run "sops secrets/firefly/.db.env",
I get the cryptic error: parsing time "" as "2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00": cannot parse "" as "2006".

This error might originate from sops itself.
Any help is hugely appreciated!

Looks like it doesn't like the lastmodified field of your encrypted file. This is what it looks like: https://github.com/Mic92/dotfiles/blob/9cbaa68b64bb584b30791d9297d5eef89fa2a99f/sops/secrets/alertmanager/secret#L22

Is .db.env actually an encrypted file?
