What do you mean? I copy my repo to new computers by just copying .password-store and I've never had a problem.
Isn't it just a git directory?
You should just `git clone that`.
If you move to age you will lose hardware backing though. No yubikey. That's the main attraction for me.

- Hard to install if not packaged. I tried to install `pass` on a headless NAS, but it required gpg, which looked hard to cross-compile to aarch64.
- `pass` is a light interface over `gpg`. So it has all the problems of GPG – I've had a few annoyances with `gpg-agent`. Many organizations are trying to ditch GnuPG and switch to simpler and better cryptography tools, like age. https://github.com/FiloSottile/age
- Android with `pass` was a bad experience. The official package was unmaintained. The fork was not packaged in F-Droid. The UI was cumbersome.
I still use pass, for lack of an obviously better universal solution. There's FiloSottile/passage for minimal change, just replacing gpg with age, but no Android. A better alternative would be gopass, which is portable across all unixes, is compatible with `pass` and has an age plugin. But still no Android packaging. https://www.gopass.pw
