NAME
sq-key-password - Change the password protecting secret key material
SYNOPSIS
sq key password [ OPTIONS ]
DESCRIPTION
Change the password protecting secret key material.
Secret key material can be protected by a password. This subcommand changes or clears the password.
To strip the password either use ‘--clear‘ or supply a zero-length password when prompted for the new password.
If a key is password protected, and the correct password was not supplied using the ‘--password-file‘ argument, the user is prompted for the password. Likewise, if the new password isn’t provided, the user is prompted.
OPTIONS

--cert = FINGERPRINT|KEYID
Change the password for the secret key material from the key with the specified fingerprint or key ID
--cert-email = EMAIL
Change the password for the secret key material from the key where a user ID includes the specified email address
--cert-file = PATH
Change the password for the secret key material from the key read from PATH
--cert-userid = USERID
