- Cthulhu_ 10y agoIn theory, yes, but in practice, things like Chromium and Linux and probably most non-npm-microlibraries are far too large to feasibly inspect before running. So basically be careful about who is given commit rights. Also, might be a good idea (if you're just running the software instead of working on it) to just pick a recent (signed) tag.
