pass

Tool for storing and reading passwords or other sensitive data.

All data is GPG-encrypted, and managed with a Git repository.

More information.

• Initialize (or re-encrypt) the storage using one or more GPG IDs:

pass init {gpg_id_1} {gpg_id_2}

• Save a new password and additional information (press Ctrl + D on a new line to complete):

pass insert --multiline {path/to/data}

• Edit an entry:

pass edit {path/to/data}

• Copy a password (first line of the data file) to the clipboard:

pass -c {path/to/data}

• List the whole store tree:

pass

• Generate a new random password with a given length, and copy it to the clipboard:

pass generate -c {path/to/data} {num}

• Initialize a new Git repository (any changes done by pass will be committed automatically):

pass git init

• Run a Git command on behalf of the password storage:

pass git {command}
