.TH PASS 1 "2012 Sept 2" ZX2C4 "Password Store"
.SH NAME
pass - stores, retrieves, generates, and synchronizes passwords securely
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pass
[
.I COMMAND
] [
.I OPTIONS
]... [
.I ARGS
]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B pass
is a very simple password store that keeps passwords inside
.BR gpg (1)
encrypted files inside a simple directory tree residing at
.IR $HOME/.password-store .
The
.B pass
utility provides a series of commands for manipulating the password store,
allowing the user to add, remove, edit, synchronize, generate, and manipulate
passwords.
If no COMMAND is specified, COMMAND defaults to either
.B show
or
.BR ls ,
depending on the type of specifier in ARGS. Otherwise COMMAND must be one of
the valid commands listed below.
Several of the commands below rely on or provide additional functionality if
the password store directory is also a git repository. If the password store
directory is a git repository, all password store modification commands will
cause a corresponding git commit.
The \fBinit\fP command must be run before other commands in order to initialize
the password store with the correct gpg key id.
.SH COMMANDS
.TP
\fBinit\fP \fIgpg-id\fP
Initialize new password storage and use
.I gpg-id
for encryption. This command must be run first before a password store can be
used.
.TP
\fBls\fP \fIsubfolder\fP
List names of passwords inside the tree at
.I subfolder
by using the
.BR tree (1)
program. This command is alternatively named \fBlist\fP.
.TP
\fBshow\fP [ \fI--clip\fP, \fI-c\fP ] \fIpass-name\fP
Decrypt and print a password named \fIpass-name\fP. If \fI--clip\fP or \fI-c\fP
is specified, do not print the password but instead copy it to the clipboard
using
.BR xclip (1)
and then restore the clipboard after 45 seconds.
.TP
\fBinsert\fP [ \fI--multiline\fP, \fI-m\fP ] \fIpass-name\fP
Insert a new password into the password store called \fIpass-name\fP. This will
read the new password from standard in. If \fI--multiline\fP or \fI-m\fP is
specified, lines will be read until EOF or Ctrl+D is reached. Otherwise, only
a single line from standard in is read.
.TP
\fBgenerate\fP [ \fI--no-symbols\fP, \fI-n\fP ] [ \fI--clip\fP, \fI-c\fP ] \fIpass-name pass-length\fP
Generate a new password using
.BR pwgen (1)
of length \fIpass-length\fP and insert into \fIpass-name\fP. If \fI--no-symbols\fP or \fI-n\fP
is specified, do not use any non-alphanumeric characters in the generated password.
If \fI--clip\fP or \fI-c\fP is specified, do not print the password but instead copy
it to the clipboard using
.BR xclip (1)
and then restore the clipboard after 45 seconds.
.TP
\fBrm\fP \fIpass-name\fP
Remove the password named \fIpass-name\fP from the password store. This command is
alternatively named \fBremove\fP.
.TP
\fBpush\fP
If the password store is a git repository, push the latest changes using
.BR git-push (1).
.TP
\fBpull\fP
If the password store is a git repository, pull the latest changes using
.BR git-pull (1).
.TP
\fBgit\fP \fIgit-command-args\fP...
If the password store is a git repository, pass \fIgit-command-args\fP as arguments to
.BR git (1)
using the password store as the git repository.
.TP
\fBhelp\fP
Show usage message.
.SH FILES
.TP
\fB~/.password-store\fP
The password storage directory.
.TP
\fB~/.password-store/.gpg-id\fP
Contains the gpg key identification used for encryption and decryption. This should
be set using the \fBinit\fP command.

.BR pwgen (1),

.BR xclip (1).
