[PATCH] Add option to print the first line of an entry

Rene Kita mail at rkta.de
Thu Dec 30 09:14:53 UTC 2021


This commit enables the use of '-1' to print only the first line of an
entry. A typical use-case would be: 'password=$(pass -1 example.org)' or
'pass -1 example.org | tmux loadb -'. Before this change one had to use
'sed 1q' or similar when using multi-line entries.

 - Add option to Usage: (shown on error and with -h)
