Re: [PATCH] Add support for XKCD-style wordlist passwords

2018-10-30 Thread Lenz Weber
Hi, I want to bring up the question: Is this something that pass needs? Or, more crass: should it offer this feature or should it be considered harmful? The point of pass, or any password manager, is not having to remember or even know your password. The default character set of pass has

[PATCH 3/5] Infer gnu-getopt path using MacPorts

2018-10-30 Thread Artur Sterz
Unlike using brew, the MacPorts default path is assumed when infering the path to gnu-getopts. This should not be done, since it is possible to install MacPorts and the ports in non-standard paths. --- src/platform/darwin.sh | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git

[PATCH 2/5] Speed up the brew-based gnu-getop lookup

2018-10-30 Thread Artur Sterz
If gnu-getopt is not installed in the brew default path, brew --prefix gnu-getopt will be used, which is annoyingly slow. brew --prefix is way faster and should be prefered. --- src/platform/darwin.sh | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/platform/darwin.sh

[PATCH 1/5] Use three assumed default paths for gnu-getopt lookup

2018-10-30 Thread Artur Sterz
brew --prefix gnu-getopt will allways make some git lookups which may take longer, depending on your internet connectivity. We therefore first look in some default location for gnu-getopt. If it is not found there, make the regular lookup. --- src/platform/darwin.sh | 5 - 1 file changed, 4

Re: [PATCH] Add support for XKCD-style wordlist passwords

I think there is a place for rememberable passwords in a password manager, for example credentials for logging into a graphical session (where you can't (easily) use a password manager). I do think that this is better made an extension than implemented into pass itself though. This would allow

Incorrect extensions dir on homepage

Hi, The homepage says that extensions should be installed in ~/.password-store/, but the manpage mentions ~/.password-store/.extensions/, which is the correct location, afaik. It seems the source homepage itself is not hosted on git so I'm unable to create a patch.. RJ signature.asc
