However, it seems that `encryption=-oldkey encryption=newkey` could be used to remove the old revoked key and add a new one. Using `-keyid` as a parameter to initremote is a bit tricky since git-annex's regular option parser would see it, before the parameter could get to initremote. (Unless -keyid was defined as a regular option specific to initremote.) OR, git-annex could just try to detect when a key is revoked and automatically remove it when a new encryption key is specified. - -Hmm, it would be possible to have it just notice, when adding a new key, if one of the existing keys is revoked, and -remove the revoked key automatically. - -The above doesn't deal with the case of wanting to add pure asymmetric encryption. It seems to me that from a user's point of view, what they really need to know about asymmetric encryption is that they can't easily give additional keyids access after the fact (without reencrypting and reuploading everything). So I think it would be good if the syntax made that obvious. Perhaps `encryptiononly=key` -"""]] |
