pinentry

By default, chezmoi will request passwords from the terminal.

If the --no-tty option is passed, then chezmoi will instead read passwords from the standard input.

Otherwise, if the configuration variable pinentry.command is set then chezmoi will instead used the given command to read passwords, assuming that it follows the Assuan protocol (PDF) like GnuPG's pinentry. The configuration variable pinentry.args specifies extra arguments to be passed to pinentry.command and the configuration variable pinentry.options specifies extra options to be set. The default pinentry.options is ["allow-external-password-cache"].
