Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
This command migrates a repository from passphrase mode (removed in Borg 1.0)
to repokey mode.
You will first be asked for the repository passphrase (to open it in passphrase
mode). This is the same passphrase you used for this repository before 1.0.
The different secrets will then be derived from this passphrase.
Then you will be asked for a new passphrase (twice, for safety). This
passphrase will be used to protect the repokey (which contains these same
secrets in encrypted form). You may use the same passphrase as you used to
use, but you may also use a different one.
After migrating to repokey mode, you can change the passphrase at any time.
Please note: the secrets will always stay the same, and they could always
be derived from your (old) passphrase-mode passphrase.
