pwm creates a bare git repository at ~/.pwm. You can change that
behaviour by using the -d option or setting the environment

pwm uses the first secret GPG key that can be found, do determine the GPG
encryption recipient. You can give pwm a hint by using the -k option or
setting the environment variable PWM_KEY
export PWM_KEY='5G532AB7'
To install pwm make sure you have installed the dependencies:
When building from the git repo you need autoconf in addition.
If you want to run unit tests you need the Check Unit Testing Framework.
Download a release tarball or clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/ushis/pwm.git
Building pwm is as easy as:
autoconf -o configure configure.ac
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-pwmexecdir=/usr/lib/pwm
