As mentioned, the prevailing wisdom is not to rotate PGP keys too often,
although there's arguments for both sides.

That being said, if you need to do so, you can re-run pass init <gpg-id> on
an existing repository. Existing keys will be decrypted and re-encrypted
for the new gpg-id.

In fact, you can supply as many gpg-ids as you want to the command, so you
can re-encrypt the files for both the existing key and the new key by
passing both IDs.
