A pass extension that provides an easy flow for updating passwords.
pass update
extends the pass utility with an update command providing
an easy flow for updating passwords. It supports path, directory and wildcard
update. Moreover, you can select how to update your passwords by automatically
generating new passwords or manually setting your own.
pass update
assumes that the first line of the password file is the password
and so only ever updates the first line unless the --multiline
option is
specified.
By default, pass update
prints the old password and waits for the user before
generating a new one. This behaviour can be changed using the provided options.
