(bcc all so as to not spam everyone) I missed this when it was first released, but git now supports signed commits:
$ git commit -S You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for user: "Ximin Luo <[email protected]>" 4096-bit RSA key, ID 5FBBDBCE, created 2010-08-03 [master cb4164e] Test 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) $ git log --show-signature -1 commit cb4164e15c246c4515fa811ebc7689ad6cf99f9f gpg: Signature made Fri 15 Feb 2013 10:29:41 GMT using RSA key ID 5FBBDBCE gpg: Good signature from "Ximin Luo <[email protected]>" Author: Ximin Luo <[email protected]> Date: Fri Feb 15 10:29:36 2013 +0000 Test You can and should add -S/--show-signature for any aliases you have for commit/log respectively. Neither of these are mentioned in the Debian man page for git 1.7.10 but this website describes its usage: http://mikegerwitz.com/docs/git-horror-story.html Spread the word! :) This provides another reason to use GPG keys which sadly are not used enough currently.
