Perhaps you can explain more clearly what you're trying to do and where you're stuck. I'm familiar with git and using a password to control access, also setting up the git global configuration not just for password, but also using SSH keys and such. But it's really unclear what exactly you need help with.

im just trying to have a back up of all my passwords,updating them and pushing them to git each time but how do i go about having those passwds on another computer. I am stuck with if i need two gpg keys, i have already created one which i use everyday. After i understand how to go about saving the gpg key in git isnt this what i have to do?

cd .password-store
pass git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/USER/pass-store
pass git push -u --all

ok so i pushed all my passwds now if i go to another pc and clone the repo will the same passwd that im using now work?

On each station you need to have your GPG key. Easiest thing to do is to copy the one you generate at the first machine and use that on you second machine. Once both Git configs are set up, you should be able to push and pull from either.
