Restic refused to create or operate on repositories with an empty password.

|
|
|
Using the new option `--insecure-no-password` it is now possible to disable
|
|
|
|
|
this check. Restic will not prompt for a password when using this option.
|
|
|
|
|
For security reasons, the option must always be specified when operating on
|
|
|
|
|
repositories with an empty password.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifying `--insecure-no-password` while also passing a password to restic
|
|
|
|
|
via a CLI option or via environment variable results in an error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `init` and `copy` command also support the option `--from-insecure-no-password`
|
2024-07-01 22:45:59 +00:00
|
|
|
which applies to the source repository. The `key add` and `key passwd` commands
|
|
|
|
|
include the `--new-insecure-no-password` option to add or set an empty password.
