-The keyring supports the following backends:
-
-    os          Uses the operating system's default credentials store.
-    file        Uses encrypted file-based keystore within the app's configuration directory.
-                This keyring will request a password each time it is accessed, which may occur
-                multiple times in a single command resulting in repeated password prompts.
-    kwallet     Uses KDE Wallet Manager as a credentials management application.
-    pass        Uses the pass command line utility to store and retrieve keys.
-    test        Stores keys insecurely to disk. It does not prompt for a password to be unlocked
-                and it should be use only for testing purposes.
-
-kwallet and pass backends depend on external tools. Refer to their respective documentation for more
-information:
-    KWallet     https://github.com/KDE/kwallet
-    pass        https://www.passwordstore.org/
-
-The pass backend requires GnuPG: https://gnupg.org/
