I am using github (public) to keep track of my web app and about to deploy it to Elastic Beanstalk. Is there a good way to keep my config file secure which has RDS username/password? I have to add the file to git in order to push it to Elastic Beanstalk but this will make my password visible to everyone on github...? Any suggestions? Thanks!

Your intuition is correct! Definitely keep your keys/passwords/credentials out of your committed codebase.
Elastic Beanstalk provides environment variables in the control panel for just this purpose. The official documentation can be found here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/command-options.html#command-options-ruby
These environment variables can be edited through the Elastic Beanstalk UI.
You can then reference these variables in your
.ymlconfig files, e.g.password: <%= ENV['PARAM1'] %>.
