Here are the steps I followed to replicate the issue: mkdir test && cd test git init echo 'test' > test.txt git hash-object -w test.txt git update-index --add --cacheinfo 100644 <blob hash> test.txt git write-tree git commit-tree --gpg-sign -m 'test commit msg' <tree obj hash> Thanks, Brandon builtin/commit-tree.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/builtin/commit-tree.c b/builtin/commit-tree.c index 9ec36a82b..9a06594f6 100644 --- a/builtin/commit-tree.c +++ b/builtin/commit-tree.c @@ -66,7 +66,9 @@ int cmd_commit_tree(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) continue; } - if (skip_prefix(arg, "-S", &sign_commit)) + if (skip_prefix(arg, "-S", &sign_commit) || + skip_prefix(arg, "--gpg-sign=", &sign_commit) || + skip_prefix(arg, "--gpg-sign", &sign_commit)) continue; if (!strcmp(arg, "--no-gpg-sign")) { -- 2.20.1
