As most of us do, I do the commit from another machine, not mine. So, for ssh I'm using ssh -A to forward the key and I'm interested to find a way to do it for the gpg key. I found an how-to that uses socat ( http://superuser.com/questions/161973/how- can-i-forward-a-gpg-key-via-ssh-agent ) but does not work as expected. This is an example: http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo- x86/app-portage/splat/Manifest?revision=1.45&view=markup The manifest apparently is signed, but there is no really gpg sign. If someone know how to do it, please let me know. -- Agostino Sarubbo / ago -at- gentoo.org Gentoo Linux Developer
