Team-ready UNIX password manager with GPG and Git
Drop-in replacement for pass that manages credentials offline or distributed. Built for teams working across devices with GPG encryption and Git versioning.
Gopass is a command-line password manager designed for teams working across multiple devices, platforms, and network conditions. As a drop-in replacement for the standard UNIX password manager (pass), it encrypts credentials with GPG by default and versions them in Git, giving teams full control over their secrets without relying on third-party services.
Gopass delivers a consistent experience on Linux, macOS, BSD, and Windows. It operates completely offline on air-gapped machines or syncs across distributed teams via Git remotes. Alternative backends—including age for encryption and fossil for storage—provide flexibility beyond the GPG/Git defaults. Browser integrations complement the CLI for users who prefer graphical workflows.
With no mandatory network connectivity and full local control, Gopass suits security-conscious teams, CI/CD pipelines, and automation scenarios. The MIT-licensed project integrates seamlessly into existing toolchains, making it ideal for developers, sysadmins, and DevOps engineers who value transparency, portability, and team collaboration.
When teams consider gopass, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Distributed DevOps Team Secrets
Engineers across time zones securely share API keys and credentials via a private Git repository, syncing changes with gopass sync and resolving conflicts through standard Git workflows.
Air-Gapped Production Server Access
System administrators manage root passwords and SSH keys on isolated machines without network connectivity, ensuring compliance with strict security policies.
CI/CD Pipeline Credential Injection
Automated build scripts retrieve database passwords and service tokens via gopass show commands, eliminating hardcoded secrets in source code.
Personal Cross-Platform Password Vault
Individual developers maintain a single encrypted password store synced across Linux workstations, macOS laptops, and Windows desktops using a personal Git remote.
No. Gopass operates fully offline by default. Network connectivity is only needed if you choose to sync your password store with a Git remote.
Yes. While GPG and Git are the defaults, gopass supports alternative backends like age for encryption and fossil or plain filesystem storage, though most users rely on GPG and Git.
Yes. Gopass is designed as a drop-in replacement for pass, so existing pass stores work with gopass without migration.
Gopass uses Git for versioning, so concurrent edits create merge conflicts that must be resolved manually using standard Git conflict resolution tools.
Gopass runs on Linux, macOS, BSD variants, and Windows with consistent command-line behavior across all platforms. Installation is available via Homebrew, apt, dnf, pacman, Chocolatey, and other package managers.
