I'm glad it's working well for you. I used to use pass, but when I lost my gpg key I was able to recover most of my passwords through a mistake I'd made. After that I decided to switch to something where I wouldn't be able to screw up as easily, and bought 1password.
I still had an earlier gpg key, and had not reset all my passwords when I switched keys. I'd just re-encrypted them. This let me check out an old commit and decrypt all the passwords in it. A dumb mistake, but it showed me I'm not smart enough to use something that doesn't hold my hand more.
- amackera 6y agoA good story, and a good lesson! Thanks for sharing
- bombcar 6y agoReally good point that you can’t change a password on something if backups exist - because they backups still have the old password. Would apply to 1Password vaults backed up by TimeMachine too.
- sails 6y agoImportant point on usability for people who may have overlooked this, like me.
- lufte 6y agoThis is why I use pass without git. pass works normally without git, but the Android app assumes the store is a repository, so it "mostly" works.
