BORG-KEY-CHANGE-PASSPHRASE(1)  borg backup tool  BORG-KEY-CHANGE-PASSPHRASE(1)

NAME
       borg-key-change-passphrase - Change repository key file passphrase

SYNOPSIS
       borg [common options] key change-passphrase [options] [REPOSITORY]

DESCRIPTION
       The  key files used for repository encryption are optionally passphrase
       protected. This command can be used to change this passphrase.

       Please note that this command only changes the passphrase, but not  any
       secret protected by it (like e.g. encryption/MAC keys or chunker seed).
       Thus, changing the passphrase after passphrase and borg key got compro-
       mised  does  not  protect future (nor past) backups to the same reposi-
       tory.

OPTIONS
       See borg-common(1) for common options of Borg commands.

   arguments
       REPOSITORY

EXAMPLES
          # Create a key file protected repository
          $ borg init --encryption=keyfile -v /path/to/repo
          Initializing repository at "/path/to/repo"
          Enter new passphrase:
          Enter same passphrase again:
          Remember your passphrase. Your data will be inaccessible without it.
          Key in "/root/.config/borg/keys/mnt_backup" created.
          Keep this key safe. Your data will be inaccessible without it.
          Synchronizing chunks cache...
          Archives: 0, w/ cached Idx: 0, w/ outdated Idx: 0, w/o cached Idx: 0.
          Done.

          # Change key file passphrase
          $ borg key change-passphrase -v /path/to/repo
          Enter passphrase for key /root/.config/borg/keys/mnt_backup:
          Enter new passphrase:
          Enter same passphrase again:
          Remember your passphrase. Your data will be inaccessible without it.
          Key updated

       Fully automated using environment variables:

          $ BORG_NEW_PASSPHRASE=old borg init -e=repokey repo
          # now "old" is the current passphrase.
          $ BORG_PASSPHRASE=old BORG_NEW_PASSPHRASE=new borg key change-passphrase repo
          # now "new" is the current passphrase.
