Switched from pass to gopass recently :
(https://github.com/justwatchcom/gopass https://github.com/justwatchcom/gopass). It's open source and has a tad bit more features over pass. Some of the reasons for my choice to switch:
- compatible with pass
- support for multiple stores
- store binary data (e.g. QR codes for seeding 2FA) : upcoming
- report / track issues on github.com/justwatchcom/gopass/issues
- more details here : https://www.justwatch.com/gopass/docs/ https://www.justwatch.com/gopass/docs/
- philsnow 9y agofun fact: 2FA QR codes contain the secret as just part of a url. you don't need to save the binary image, just figure out what the (usually base32-encoded) secret value is, and store that. google authentcator lets you type in the base32-encoded secret (useful if your phone's camera is broken). see e.g. https://garbagecollected.org/2014/09/14/how-google-authenticator-works/ https://garbagecollected.org/2014/09/14/how-google-authentic...
- ekimekim 9y agoThe original pass seems to handle binary data fine: $ pass insert -m mybinarysecret <secret.png $ pass show mybinarysecret >secret.png Admittedly, it's not very user-friendly, but some simple wrapper scripts could fix that.
