All passwords live in ~/.password-store, and pass provides some nice commands for adding, editing, generating, and retrieving passwords.
Pass makes managing these individual password files extremely easy. These encrypted files may be organized into meaningful folder hierarchies, copied from computer to computer, and, in general, manipulated using standard command line file management utilities. With pass, each password lives inside of a gpg encrypted file whose filename is the title of the website or resource that requires the password. Password management should be simple and follow Unix philosophy.
