- ducktective 4y ago>if it’s tied to your name How can this be proved? Even with signing, anyone can impersonate anyone.
- Volundr 4y agoThe entire point of the signature is that it can't be forged. If a commit is signed with your private keys, I can reasonably conclude you authored it.
- heartbreak 4y agoI know this is a solved problem in certain contexts, but realistically how does a third party prove that your private keys are yours?
- dinkledunk 4y agoBecause if you're signing your commits you're probably also the type of person to sign your email with the same key.
- palata 4y agoAdding a data point to your statistics: I sign commits and packages I maintain (when it applies), not my emails.
