From: Santiago Torres <santiago@xxxxxxx> The verify_signed_buffer comand might cause a SIGPIPE signal when the gpg child process terminates early (due to a bad keyid, for example) and git tries to write to it afterwards. Previously, ignoring SIGPIPE was done on the builtin/verify-tag.c command to avoid this issue. However, any other caller who wanted to use the verify_signed_buffer command would have to include this signal call. Instead, we use sigchain_push(SIGPIPE, SIG_IGN) on the verify_signed_buffer call (pretty much like in sign_buffer()) so that any caller is not required to perform this task. This will avoid possible mistakes by further developers using verify_signed_buffer. Signed-off-by: Santiago Torres <santiago@xxxxxxx> --- Note: On this version i moved the sigchain_push below the return error in the same way that sign_buffer does().
