Currently, verify-commit and verify-tag produce human-readable output. This is great for humans, and awful for machines. It also lacks a lot of the information that GnuPG's --status-fd output provides. For example, if you wanted to know * the hash algorithm; * whether the signature was made with a subkey; or * the OpenPGP signature version none of that information is available in the human-readable output. This series introduces a --raw option for verify-commit and verify-tag. If it's used, they provide the gpg --status-fd output on standard error instead of the human-readable output. The series also adds tests for verify-tag, since there were none; these are based off the ones for verify-commit. v2 of the series corrects one of two incompatibilities between verify-commit and verify-tag. If a valid signature was made with an untrusted key, verify-commit would exit 1, but verify-tag would exit 0. This has been corrected (as Michael J Gruber suggested); both now return 0, as the signature is in fact good. The other incompatibility is that verify-tag --verbose always prints the tag contents even if no signature is found, while verify-commit --verbose does not print the commit. I left this alone, as it seemed easy enough to accommodate at the expense of making the code slightly uglier. Changes since v1: * Unify some of the code between verify-commit and verify-tag. * Pass the --verbose and --raw options as flags instead of individual boolean arguments. * Reorder the patches to ensure that verify-tag tests came before refactors, to avoid regressing functionality. * Changed verify-commit to succeed if a signature is good, regardless of whether it is trusted, at Michael J Gruber's suggestion. brian m. carlson (7): verify-tag: add tests verify-tag: share code with verify-commit verify-commit: add test for exit status on untrusted signature gpg: centralize signature check gpg: centralize printing signature buffers verify-commit: add option to print raw gpg status information verify-tag: add option to print raw gpg status information Documentation/git-verify-commit.txt | 4 ++ Documentation/git-verify-tag.txt | 4 ++ builtin/verify-commit.c | 25 ++++---- builtin/verify-tag.c | 30 +++++++--- commit.c | 21 ++----- commit.h | 2 +- gpg-interface.c | 37 ++++++++++++ gpg-interface.h | 6 ++ t/t7030-verify-tag.sh | 115 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ t/t7510-signed-commit.sh | 38 ++++++++++++ 10 files changed, 246 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-) create mode 100755 t/t7030-verify-tag.sh -- 2.4.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in
