[pass] Multiple password contexts

[Adam Liter]

Sorry I forgot the trailing slashes in the autocompletion stuff. That's 
what's in my config, but somehow that got lost in writing the email.

Anyway, regarding:

Are you talking about auto completion of the git subcommands to pass, or 
are you talking about the ability to have pass automatically write 
commits?

In either case, I've always used git submodules with pass, which isn't 
supported anyway, so I've never really relied on the git functionality 
of pass. Instead, I've written my own commits.

So it's quite possible this breaks whatever git functionality you're 
referring to, and I wouldn't have noticed because that was the status 
quo for me. :-p

There was discussion of this earlier on this mailing list, here: 
https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/password-store/2016-February/002099.html

Lenz has a patch that would support git submodules. I haven't yet tried 
it out, though. I'm not really adding any new passwords to my current 
password store, so resolving this hasn't been a high priority for me, 
unfortunately.
