NAME

       borg-change-passphrase - Change repository key file passphrase

SYNOPSIS

       borg [common options] change-passphrase [options] [REPOSITORY]

DESCRIPTION

       The  key  files  used  for repository encryption are optionally passphrase protected. This command can be
       used to change this passphrase.

       Please note that this command only changes the passphrase, but not any secret protected by it (like  e.g.
       encryption/MAC  keys  or  chunker seed).  Thus, changing the passphrase after passphrase and borg key got
       compromised does not protect future (nor past) backups to the same repository.
