BORG-KEY-MIGRATE-TO-REPOKEY(1) borg backup tool BORG-KEY-MIGRATE-TO-REPOKEY(1)

NAME

   borg-key-migrate-to-repokey - Migrate passphrase -> repokey

SYNOPSIS

   borg [common options] key migrate-to-repokey [options] [REPOSITORY]

DESCRIPTION

   This command migrates a repository from passphrase mode (removed in Borg 1.0) to repokey mode.

   You  will  be  first asked for the repository passphrase (to open it in passphrase mode). This is the same passphrase as you used to use for this repo before
   1.0.

   It will then derive the different secrets from this passphrase.

   Then you will be asked for a new passphrase (twice, for safety). This passphrase will be used to protect the repokey (which contains these  same  secrets  in
   encrypted form). You may use the same passphrase as you used to use, but you may also use a different one.

   After  migrating to repokey mode, you can change the passphrase at any time.  But please note: the secrets will always stay the same and they could always be
   derived from your (old) passphrase-mode passphrase.
