Hello,
Long-time fan of this utility. It is the first PM I used, at least
seriously, and I want to say thank you for great software.
A frequent problem I encounter is that I must constantly generate
passwords for weaker sites (I am new to the list, so let's all crack up
and suppose banking sites). I use the following command of course.
> pass generate -c folder/my-crappy-insecure-web-app-du-jour 24
Only to discover after the fact the vague, and often completely
unpublished, password requirements are weaker than even advertised. So
I must go through a constant hair-pulling
> pass git reset --hard HEAD~1
or fill my git logs with tons of subsequent re-gens or edits to manually
get creative. Would anyone be interested in a parameter for generate
that is like copy, but also opens up the pre-generated password in a
buffer **before saving** such that you can test and tweak it without
5-10 commits, like yours truly?
If that something you all are willing to accept, I will work on a patch.
