- Initialize the storage using a gpg-id for encryption:
`pass init {{gpg_id}}`
- Save a new password (prompts you for the value without echoing it):
`pass insert {{path/to/data}}`
- Copy a password (first line of the data file) to the clipboard:
`pass -c {{path/to/data}}`
- List the whole store tree:
`pass`
- Generate a new random password with a given length, and copy it to the clipboard:
`pass generate -c {{path/to/data}} {{num}}`
- Run any git command against the underlying store repository:
`pass git {{git_arguments}}`
