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.
