GPG signature support on commit object.

[sugi]

I rewrite the patch for GPG signature support with unit test.

This replaces pull request #57 and also fixes issue #110.

It'll be nice to have this merged at least. GPG signed commits are good!

What's the current status on this? I've inherited some code that reports git versions of the running system, and it started breaking when we started signing our code.

FWIW in addition to signed commits there are also signed tags, and further-more when you merge a signed tag recent versions of git will actually include the signed tag itself in the commit created, letting you verify that signature without the tag object itself. Not too many projects do this, but the Linux kernel git repo does.

Can someone fix this pull request?
I don't know Python so I can't.

I just had a look at this one, and it seems it's not easily mergeable for some reason.

Also, it might not be of any use as branch 0.3 is the one most people are seeing, which will require it to be backported as well.
This pull request was made against master, which changed a lot and is currently entirely unsupported.
However, I will do this with priority, as it clearly is a useful feature with a sound implementation.

Hi, try to apply it from here http://pastebin.com/729KRw8V
The main issue was that the original code used tabs. The new one uses spaces.

(If the patch still won't apply try to add a space to the end of the last line. Pastebin removed it for some reason...)

[Byron]

Thanks for the hint !
I just looked at the commandline diff, and for some reason didn't even consider whitespace issues as a possible cause, even though I was the one who applied the transition from tabs to whitespace in the first place.

I have rebased this pull request to current 0.3 and sent new one #189. Please review and and consider to merge.

[Byron]

I will close this request, as it was already merged into 0.3. In master it is not required, as it is obsolete.
Thanks for your understanding.
