I can't agree that COMMITID=ef8df950c8d16dace62e55d18b26617b1268f1bc; \ git cat-file $COMMITID -p |\ sed -e '/^ /{H;$!d;}; x;/^gpgsig /!d; s/^gpgsig//;' |\ cut -c 2- |\ gpg --list-packets --textmode |\ sed '/keyid/!d; s/.*keyid \([0-9A-F]\{16\}\).*/\1/I' is the way to go, when COMMITID=ef8df950c8d16dace62e55d18b26617b1268f1bc; \ git log $COMMITID --pretty=format:%GK -n 1 and COMMITID=ef8df950c8d16dace62e55d18b26617b1268f1bc; \ git show $COMMITID --pretty=format:%GK -s do the same thing. Is there a way to properly extract the GPG signature object, such that GPG operations may be done on it? Are the git log formats safe to use in scripts (asking because it was said not to use at http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/show-pretty-B-without-a-diff-td5852061.html#a5853270)? If git log with format specifiers is safe to use, would there be interest in accepting a patch for %Gs - the raw GPG text from the commit %Gf - the key fingerprint -Jason -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- - - - Jason Pyeron PD Inc. http://www.pdinc.us - - Principal Consultant 10 West 24th Street #100 - - +1 (443) 269-1555 x333 Baltimore, Maryland 21218 - - - -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This message is copyright PD Inc, subject to license 20080407P00. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
