not gp, but I did the same thing a few years back (well, lastpass->keepass->pass/git) primarily because I was sick of using a proprietary walled garden.
The main benefit of pass, for me, is that it's literally just gpg-encrypted text files. I can access my passwords even if I do not have pass installed, as long as I have my gpg private key. Using git to sync passwords makes it even better!
The android Password Store app (on f-droid) is a great graphical interface to my pass files, including handling git syncs.
- cajdavidson 9y ago+1 for the Password Store app, I happen to use an Android tablet and an iPhone and the "Pass" app on iPhone works just as well too (and includes touchID).
- 0xfeba 9y agoWhy did you move from keepass?
- craftyguy 9y agoTwo reasons: 1) I didn't like that its approach seemed overly complicated (e.g. its database format, client apps, etc) 2) I was having a really hard time synchronizing passwords, especially if there was a sync conflict. When they happened, the entire database was a 'conflict'. There were also issues I had with the actual sync mechanism, which at the time I had the database on a seafile instance and had to enable various 'hacks' in keepass to get it to play nicely (e.g. file locking, etc).
