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.
