This is the one I'd really like to use.  What I really like about
pass:

- dead simple, just strings together existing tools
- can store passwords in a directory structure that I can browse
  myself
- I can access everything by invoking gpg manually, bypassing pass
  entirely
- native git integration, for password version control and syncing

But I can't find a reasonable way to access this from android.
There's an experimental iOS app, but nothing for android :(

The other reasonable CLI manager is pwsafe.  Because it uses the
Password Safe file format, it's compatible with that whole family --
Password Safe, Password Gorilla, PasswdSafe (android), etc.

So unless someone here has figured out how to use pass from android,
it looks like I'll be running with pwsafe.
