Hello there, let me remind you of different time zones :) Thanks for calling me.
As you could see from the mailing list, I simply forked because the author and collabs weren't entirely OK on my approach of loading extensions even before handling internal commands. And that's just fine, I don't intend to force push my ideas into anyone. Once I forked, I kept developing without waiting for pass. I implemented the help from extensions, and now I'm working on a feature that enables for filename encryption to solve the metadata leak: https://github.com/HacKanCuBa/passh/projects Which is taking me a while since bash falls a bit short here (but can be handled). I'll try my best to develop this feature as an extension so it can be easily used by pass too, but it might not be possible given that it affects every operation: show, insert, edit, etc... And from the mailing list, you might see that such feature was discussed several times. I'll propose it once again as soon as I have the code working. There are some extensions that tries to solve it too, but aren't enough nor completely useful from my point of view (let me know if you require a more detailed explanation here). Regarding licensing, I usually prefer GPL3, but if, as Christian says, issues might arise that could interfere with sharing code with pass, then I would change it to GPL2.0+. Please explain me more about this. (Btw, I'm editing the readme so it reads 2.0+ instead of 2.0 as noted). I'm going to make myself some time to write a patch the way pass requires (plain in the mailing list, no attachments) to see how that goes again and satisfy inquires done in this thread. Thanks for everything so far! Cheers!
