Requires GPG key generation and a Git remote configured for syncing before first use.
Gopass is a command-line password manager designed for individuals and teams who want to store credentials securely without relying on a cloud service. It works on Linux, macOS, Windows, and BSD systems, and can run entirely offline if needed. The way it works is straightforward: passwords and other secrets are encrypted using a tool called GPG and then stored in a Git repository. GPG is an encryption standard widely used for securing files and emails. Git is a versioning system most often associated with code, but here it is used to track the history of your password store and to sync changes across devices or with teammates. An alternative encryption method called age is also supported if you prefer not to use GPG. You interact with gopass through a terminal. Common tasks include creating a new secret, listing what you have stored, copying a password to your clipboard without displaying it on screen, syncing with a remote repository, and removing entries you no longer need. A browser integration is also available if you prefer not to type commands every time you need a password. For teams, the standout feature is that multiple people can share the same encrypted store over a shared Git remote. Each team member can be added as a recipient, and their GPG key is used to encrypt the store so that everyone who should have access can decrypt it independently. Gopass can be installed through most major package managers, including Homebrew on macOS, apt on Debian-based Linux systems, dnf on Fedora, pacman on Arch Linux, and WinGet or Chocolatey on Windows. A binary download is also available for manual installation. The project is open source under the MIT license and welcomes contributions.
